  Tasted non blind.
  
  Dark garnet color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of dishwater, pepper, cardamom, black berries and basil oil. Flavors of black berries, cherries and raspberries. Bright acidity, medium to firm tannin, full bodied. Drink over the short term, perhaps into the medium term. I'd lean towards sooner than later.

  Another lovely Barolo we found in the cellar. Drinking great, but may be on the backside of it's drinking window, as it seemed to lose a lot of flavor by the 2nd hour. Big wine, soft tannins, well integrated, leather on the nose, balsamic, mushroom, plum, truffle on the palate. Drink now or within the next couple years. It may develop tertiary flavors with more time, but hard to tell at this point.

  Gathering at Brian's (Brian's Home): Balsamic vinegar, high toned cherries and hint of herbs on the nose. Palate is smooth and creamy with vanilla oak, ripe cherries, some dark chocolate and leather. Felt sleek and modern and well made for the style. Just not my type of wine, though.

  good red color with aging brick throughout, a great and meaty texture and taste is its most immediately evident quality, cherries and leather on the nose, dark thorny bramble, a generous but also serious fruit on the mid-palate, good length, I wish I had more time with this as there is much more to it than this note can tell, seems near maturity to me but time in hand, this is my first encounter with Damilano and I enjoyed it greatly, ****, now to 2025+.

  Initially this showed red cherry, pepper, earth with a mild tannic bite. At hour 2, this wine showed it's beauty with smooth complex notes of darker fruit, earth, leather, tar, and some hints of a dusting of cocoa powder. At hour 3 some of the tannins and cherry reemerged on the finish. Best from hour 2-3. Tasted from decanter over 4 hours.
