DeeeLish! Definitely a delicate version of Nebbiolo. Great nose. Medium tannins. Nice fruit. But not as fruit forward as the Elio Altare we also had at dinner. I need to try more of his single vineyard wines. — 7 years ago

Similar to the Elio Altare Barolo tasted recently this is aged in Barriques so this is a modern rendition of Barbaresco. The oak is brilliantly handled, does not intrude and gives the wine a good balance. Earthy leathery aromas with a lush fluid palate of medium intensity finishing with fine tannins. Bought in Alba in 2015. At Willos Italian night. — 9 years ago

Great at first, extremely complex. Flavors of barbecue sauce, cedar, leather, wood, tobacco and mint. After about an hour the mint flavor became extremely bitter making the wine less enjoyable. — 10 years ago

Garnet to pink rim, clear and bright. Soft fragrant rose petals, baked cherry vanilla biscuit, closing out with a hint of licorice. Some nuttiness on the palate, with persistent alcohol-warmed cherries midway. Tart and grippy tannic finish. More bottle life awaits. Very very enjoyable, bringing back memories of La Morra last summer. Looking forward to our return to Piedmont!

This tastes even more full bodied against the Altare Barolo I drink the kool aid when it comes to Tig- the 07 is one of the best vintages out there. — 8 years ago

A bit young but the vintage is so approachable. Very earthy and funky but oh so complex and delicious. Ahhh, Barolo, you keep me guessing. — 9 years ago

Perfect with hour decant. Brambly, tarry and some campfire smoke. Leathery and dark, slightly tart cherry fruit with fine drying tannins. In a perfect place but at least 5 years to peak. — 9 years ago

Lovely even this young. Sure, its tannic, but excellent balance. Showing better than the Elio Altare due to no obvious oak. — 10 years ago
