Fairly transparent for Barbera and light in alcohol at 13.5%. Lovely bright nose, ripe of red cherry with a floral twist. On the palate it tastes quite evolved with a secondary profile that is very appealing. Could almost pass for a barolo. Probably best Barbera I’ve tried and better than the Burlotto Aves and Vietti Scarrone tried alongside. — 4 years ago
Medium body, soft tannins, lots of fruit. Ungrafted vines sets this apart from other Barolos — 6 years ago
Bitterness is lovely but not quite integrated to to the rest of the flavour. — 7 months ago
In perfect shape - cork intact, good color. Amazing bottle. This is the 1947. — 5 years ago
My WOTN! A "complete" Barolo, kinda out of a school book, that had it all: noble tannins, freshness and a first evolution into maturity. Huge layers of red berries, dried flowers, pipe tobacco, cedar and a bit of menthol. A touch fresher and more intense in the aromatics and tannins than the 1999 Rupestris. — 6 years ago

Allocated 6 bottles per year and we purchased the last one for this year. Higher in acid, impressions of dark berries, some tannins, black pepper, and hints of wet leaves on the nose. — a day ago
