Barboncino. Very dry — 8 years ago
Us again on this wine. So glad we guessed right that this would be a winner and squirreled some away. It's got this amazing rote grütze flavor with beautiful age on the fruit, and just enough acid to let you know it's going to go the distance. If you can find this, get it. — 9 years ago
Cork pulled cleanly; still in excellent condition. Took my time enjoying the rose petal, soil and truffle aromas and the dried sour cherry, earth, mushroom, and briney flavors, nicely complemented by a beautiful mushroom risotto courtesy of @Steven Perlman. — 9 years ago
Soft ripe fruits and tobacco on the nose. Amber red in colour. Soft tanins, mild pear, and tobacco notes. Finishes on notes of smoke. My dining companion compared it to the wine he would drink for the rest of his life. Stellar representation of quality Italian wines — 10 years ago

Probably the tail end of its good drinking window. Excellent aromatics and actually quite a deeper red color in the glass than expected. A bit muted in fruit on the palate but delicate raspberry comes through with lots of earth. Good acid on the finish. For the age and the price, I’ll take it. — 6 years ago
