Christmas dinner. Light bodied, vanilla, cherry. Short finish. Fantastic — 4 months ago
Earthy (of course). Cherries, raspberries, strawberry, leather, and tobacco. Outstanding, and just coming into its own. — 4 months ago
Ruby running to garnet, color. Earthy nose, brush, pine. We are way early of course. Sharp, bitter cut on the flowers, wood present, tannins still quite chalky and harsh. But this will be amazing with time. Alcohol and acidity will usher this wine into another dimension. I would give this another 2-3 years. You can drink it now at a score of 92+, but, hold out for 95. @Antonio Galloni will this make the cut for the future Barolo event?

Still holding more of the red color than the other 64s, but very nice tar and roses, and after 4hr decant well integrated with lots of life. — 8 years ago

2000 | Nebbiolo
Domenico Clerico; Pajana (Ginestra)
Piedmont - Langhe; Barolo, Monforte d'Alba, Italy
(92-94; Drink 2030-40)
Nose has cherry jam, wet leather, stewed red fruits, sweet tobacco and dark chocolate.
Palate has cherry mash, moist chocolate brownie, cedar and sea salt. Fading but present tannins.
12H decant, still needs airing, long life ahead. I'm a fan of 2000 Baroli. — 4 months ago

Classic Barolo — 6 years ago
Still too young but a thrilling ride. — 8 years ago
Pleasing to drink and very balanced but not what I expected. The tannins are weaker than the fruit and it doesn't wow on the nose. Nothing wrong with it but as the saying goes "I've had better" — 8 years ago
Other ratings called this “closed” which I completely agree with. The dense flavors took forever to open up. I popped it at noon for a 7:30p dinner of chick pea and potato pasta, and it was still developing. Highly tannic, but so layered if you have the patience. Darker fruits, yet still some tart red cherry, lavender, rose petals, and ashy dryness. Complex, classic Barolo (from my limited experience). I’ll save my second bottle to see how it develops. — 2 months ago
Much softer than the 05 … still fairly primary but much nicer to drink today — 4 months ago
Great. Anise, balsamic, and dark cherry. — 4 months ago
Wine has aged beautifully. Tannins have softened and the bold flavor paired perfectly with lamb chops roasted with garlic and herbs. — 4 years ago
Wine class again. Yum. — 11 years ago

Nice touch of roses and tertiary notes with a hint of red fruit that disappeared after 30min or so. Enjoyable while it lasted. — 2 months ago
