Wowza! A big nose of tar & blood oranges. Both day 1 and 2. A minimally f’d with Nebbiolo from a cooler site, put into large Slovenian oak. Not forever, but enough. No wood apparent. But it’s luscious, just short of full. ( There have been Baroli pass these lips that were not up to this). A hidden gem. — 7 months ago

Awesome. Perfect pairing with grilled bone in lamb sirloin, mixed green salad with olives, feta cheese and Brianna’s French vinaigrette, roasted broccoli and Seeds of Change quinoa and brown rice — 6 years ago
Great vintage, soulful rendition of Nebbiolo, but just know it’s more like a 3 minute Stax records hit, rather than a long play jam of, say, Les Mcann Compared To What. Still, for20$, I’d choose it most days of the week. Some of that burnished leather furniture & forest floor is coming through the Nebbiolo, & so it’s more black fruited & evocative than peppy. Just know it’s a shorter finish. — 8 months ago
Cor escura e corpo denso. Possui sensação bastante aromática em um primeiro momento, com notas cítricas que lembram maçã e ameixa, mas também bastante alcoólico. Na boca reforça o aspecto alcoólico, com característica bastante tânica, lembrando fruta verde e com frescor. — 8 months ago
Pretty and very tannic. Great palate progression. WG $13.75 — 3 years ago
Fun and affordable wine for a quick dinner. Would drink it again. — 5 years ago
Deep, damson mid season cherry, licorice, anise, rustic nose, juicy, complex, huge furry tannins. Well made, decent length, balanced and pretty, elegant. Needs air.
On day 2 this is transformed. Ripe and rich with wonderful stylishness and pure deep fruit. Terrific wine. — 5 years ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple of hours. No formal notes. As others have stated in previous TN’s, this is simply too young. The fruit is gorgeous and the winemaking is very good however, I find it to be too primary for my liking. Even after a few days, it was unwilling to develop. It’s balanced with sufficient structure to age well…and I suspect quite gracefully. I swooped up a couple of bottles and I’ll plan to forget about my remaining bottle for at least a decade. Better after 2026 and probably best after 2031. — 5 months ago
