One of the best wines I’ve had in my life. Truly spectacular. All the things were there. Structure, balance, the fruits of Barolo, all of it. No sense in going over it. Memorable to say the least — 6 years ago
Slight earth ripe stone fruit. Excellent. Traditional blend reminds me of Italy. — 7 years ago

Luxurious, decadent, full of youthful fruit but ready to drink now. Those 2009 Barolos are very underrated — 10 years ago
Could drink this every day. — 11 years ago

2006 vintage. Good old fashioned Barolo. Light colour and hue. Medicinal notes. Floral and red cherry. Gorgeous crunchy tannins. Long finish. This is a step up from the '89. Plenty of years ahead of this wine. Very good indeed. NB: after 2 hours this wine is singing: roses and tar to the fore, integrated tannins, crisp acidity. Bouquet is out of this world. — 12 years ago
Drank 5/17/13 with veal and spatzle, not as smooth as we would have guessed, still good. — 13 years ago

I liked it but too sweet for Warren — 7 years ago
bright tannic and youthful. Much better after decanting. Oak, tobacco overlaying red fruit — 8 years ago
Glad I aged this bad boy. Delicious. Drinking beautifully now. — 9 years ago

Brickish ruby. After 3 hrs of air, nose of flower petals, tea, red berry fruit, and a little menthol. Round and rich with some mocha in the mouth. Young but delivers nicely right now. — 11 years ago
Good bottle from a bad vintage. Big. — 11 years ago
Smooth finish red wine from Italy — 13 years ago
Bright with tart cherries, high acidity and light body, very low tannin and dark chocolate with blueberries. Great with pizza and butternut squash and even curry. Fantastic every day wine — 7 years ago
Top Barbera d'alba! Zalig. — 8 years ago
Wonderful — 9 years ago
Fujioka $21. Great with steak or prime rib. Not a heavy red. Can drink on its own. — 10 years ago
Serious wine but a fair amount of fruit. Dried cherries, eucalyptus, and earth. Firm tannic structure. I like it! — 11 years ago
Thanksgiving leftover wine — 11 years ago
