Consumed my last and final bottle of six. I can honestly say that slowly drinking these over the course of the past six years, that this wine is drinking consistently great. Pairs great with pasta and meat sauce. Great value Barolo.

I’ve been tasting this wine since 2018. With food and a one hour decant, this is a beautiful wine. By itself, it is a bit tannic with a touch of overripe raisin fruit. However, with food, it is terrific and contains Nebbiolo goodness!

Opens with fresh roses, some menthol, cherry compote, blueberries, cigar box. On the palate very concentrated and enjoyable. Great structure, good acidity. Excellent wine, specially given the vintage))

Similar to my prior tasting note. This wine definitely needs food. Once paired correctly, it is very good. Without food the grippy tannin is the dominant tasting note. Decanted 1 hour.

Not as good as the last time I had it. However, it could just be that I didn’t have food to go along with it. Drink with food for maximum enjoyment and decant for an hour.
