Dried strawberry, cherry, roses, leather. Subtle hints of gravel and forest. Palate is acid driven with bright red fruit, with a hint of mid-palate sweetness and transition into a soft tannin finish, indicative of the 2012 perhaps. — 8 years ago
Nice cherry notes with a zippy finish — 8 years ago
Light color with excellent clarity. Fruit forward bouquet with hints of pepper on the back. Smooth flavor, light and well balanced. — 9 years ago
Soft and approachable modern Barolo. Deep red cherry and plum with a hint of spice and liquorice. Nicely balanced and easy to drink. Lovely wine but I did prefer the 2011. — 9 years ago

From half bottle. Aromas of leather loam and a little plum but essentially very savoury with fine sandy tannins. Oak is there but not overbearing. Loved the wine and a great accompaniment to Pork Belly. Met the owner and chef Tony Percuoco. A great restaurant and a regular for us when visiting Brisbane. His 2 brothers run the equally good Fellinis on the Gold Coast and Armando is the chef and owner of Buon Ricordo one of Sydney’s best Italian restaurants. All 3 highly recommended. — 7 years ago
I love this style: bâtonnage, skin contact, small barrels / creamier, Burgundian / marzipan, custard, chewing gum? — 8 years ago

Red fruits with tons of floral and touch of tar. Gripping but integrating tannins. — 10 years ago
This 2010 will stand out as a standard bearer. Upon opening the aromas were gorgeous but the acidity overwhelming, within a few minutes it became candied spiced oranges on the nose with powdered cocoa over orange peel with clove and nutmeg in the mid palate. So good I never wanted it to end. — 7 years ago

Takes a little while to open up, so decant this one. Super gulpable once it's had time to get its bearings in the glass. Flavors of prunes and dried figs with notes of cured meats, herbs, and coriander — 9 years ago
Not what I would think of as a traditional Barolo in style. Young with a lot of fruit at the beginning, joined by coffee, liquorice, spice and some earthiness. Not much tannic structure leads me to believe this is best consumed young. The 2011 was a much better example of the region and winemaker.
