Nose has intense and pure dark cherry fruit along with a lot of crushed stone-laced gravel, along with a note that reminds me of clove-studded pot roast. Focused and clear in the mouth, it’s basically got tons of flavor packed into a weightless package. Great acids. Tannins present and providing nice structure but soft. Long finish. Really nice. — 4 years ago
Nose is very welcoming.   Hints of tobacco.  Roasted plum.  Plum skin.  
Palate is sweet plum.  Cherry. Delicious.   Really sweet fruit.  Chocolate.  Good acidic balance 
Very sexy texture.  Really caresses the palate.  Clings in a gentle but persistent way.  Almost sensual.

This guy is like the Jacky Truchot of Alto Piemonte. Light color, yet amazing finesse and delicacy along with a brilliant texture. Gorgeous nose. Cherries, spice, sawdust, Rainer cherries as well, some lurid feral aromas as well. So complex, delicate and detailed. Palate is beautifully fruited with lovely elegant tannin and gorgeous bright cherries rule the day. Dusty elegant tannin and sappy fruit finish it off. Needs maybe 1 hour to turn into the lace monster it becomes. — 8 years ago

Probably the best croatina I’ve ever had! Okay, prob the only one I’ve ever had. Another Lou classic, earthy, funky, tart cherries, beautiful ruby color and barnyard nose. — 6 years ago

If Barbaresco & Margaux had a baby… mostly Nebbiolo - very elegantly styled, regal bearing. No signs of age & fairly tightly wound still - bunch of dusty cherries mingled with spice, asphalt, herbaceousness and violets. Lovely perfumed nose leads to cherries & red fruit on palate, earth & soil but smooth - oh so smooth. Finish didn’t live up to the rest, but still thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Less aroma than Nebbiolo but surprisingly high tannins and very healthy dense color. — 6 years ago
Beautiful floral notes - red roses hits you at first. Dried tart cherry, red currant, wild strawberry, fennel, mushroom. Touch of sandalwood once it opens up. Really nice — 7 years ago
Crispy, tart, mineral. Another great traditional Italian Rose value. — 8 years ago
