The gorgeous, soaring nose of violets, Plum, deep blue fruit… Very intense and pure and lifted with floral notes, and a vibrant core of savory and detailed fruit. Still young, but great quality. — 3 days ago

aromatics begin with damson plum three quickly turn to black currant with waves of mocha, tapenade, and lavender on top

the palate is all about ripe and bright fruit, juicy and sometimes pastille-like, with the silkiest of tannins caressing the finish — 2 years ago

2016. We really liked the way the oak rounded out this wine when compared to the slightly more tart Barbera d’Asti from the same producer that was poured as part of my daughter’s pairing. Paired with the Tajarin dalla forma finished in a wheel of gran kinara cheese. — 4 years ago
