  Red cherry, strawberry, pretty spices and earth notes on the nose. Close to full bodied (14.5% ABV) with rounded red and black cherry upfront. Gains depth and tension through the middle. The fruit is showing good expression and is well balanced with the tannins and acidity on the backside. Has elements of elegance and elements of tannic grip. Shows well now, but should continue to improve as the fruit and structure components come together.

  Classic Barolo. Smokey notes on the nose with lots of mineral and herb elements. Brickish ruby red in glass with clear rim. Mouthfeel is acidic and tannic as you would expect but with a sweet and herbaceous streak. Long finish with stone and some gaminess. Wish I had more to see how this drinks in 3-5 years

  A very well made classic barolo in style and taste. Irony minerality on nose and in finish with dried fruits and a cherry like finish. good balance and will certainly improve and age for years

  Started with a funk and ended with a very tannic structure. Lovely soft light/medium bodied wine. I think this needs a few years to resolve. Maybe in 5 years this will get to the mid 90’s.

  Drinking nicely from pop and pour, followed over a couple hours. Darker fruits, nicely balanced. I found this quite a strong showing.
