  Very good, open and ready to go right off the bat. Long, complex with semi gripping tannins. Some balanced oak, not disturbing at all. Quite dark in color.

  Another excellent bottle. Consumed with a 2006 Dujac Echezeaux and Prevost Beguines, this held its own amongst classy company, standing out for its structure but also its bright and bold cherry fruit. Great length. Drinking well young but I'll likely leave the other bottles for maturity.

  Lovely, elegant Barolo, despite the rather warm vintage. Surprisingly open and ready to go. Classic tar and roses, some cherry fruit. Very nice.

  Translucent red/red-brickish deep colour. Superb nose, ethereal, complex, multiple layers of rose petal, herbs, spice, fresh cherries, a hint of tobacco. On the palate, medium-bodied, vivid acidity, balanced (already now, tannins), plenty of cherries, blueberries, flavours of rose hip. Luscious, lingering and spicy finish. Well-developed already in 2021.
