Dec 2023: singing after 2 hour decant, great balance, not many signs of aging, style resembles classic Barolo from neighbouring Cannubi, drink or hold — 7 years ago
Lovely Barbera!
Great balance probably thanks to the warm vintage — 8 years ago
Smooth with great flavor! — 9 years ago
Luxurious, decadent, full of youthful fruit but ready to drink now. Those 2009 Barolos are very underrated — 9 years ago
The nose was perfumed and intense with dried flowers, rich black cherry, roasted nuts, exotic spice, balsamic tones, gravel dust and hints of undergrowth. On the palate, it was silky with vibrant currents of acidity ushering in dark fruits, cedar and spice notes. Mounting tannin coated the palate throughout the finish, drying out the fruit and reminding me that this is a young Barolo. — 10 years ago
Full-bodied, paired with ravioli and marinara — 11 years ago
Raisin/oxidized nose, softer than the '18, more minerality, tannins... very nice! — 3 years ago
Slight earth ripe stone fruit. Excellent. Traditional blend reminds me of Italy. — 6 years ago

Good bottle from a bad vintage. Big. — 11 years ago
Medium ruby color with aromas of ripe red fruits and elegant hints of floral. On the palate flavors of black cherry, raspberry and plum with hints of fig and tobacco. Tannins are fine and round, a tad young with high acidity noted. The finish is medium, smooth and ends with oak and earthy mineral notes. Very nice. Needs time. — 5 years ago
Big and balanced blend. Fine tannins with nice minerality add to the currant and berry notes. — 5 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. — 10 years ago
A great older vintage and this wine still has some fruit — 11 years ago
Smooth finish red wine from Italy — 12 years ago
