A bit young but the vintage is so approachable. Very earthy and funky but oh so complex and delicious. Ahhh, Barolo, you keep me guessing. — 7 years ago

Djup doft av röda frukter, jord och viol. Stor rund smak av körsbär och plommon. Granit och tanniner. Så jävla gott! — 8 years ago

Great at first, extremely complex. Flavors of barbecue sauce, cedar, leather, wood, tobacco and mint. After about an hour the mint flavor became extremely bitter making the wine less enjoyable. — 9 years ago

Opened up after 15 mins to provide good balance with a bit of minerality and earthiness. Good value at approx $20 — 7 years ago

Day 1: Captivating nose, wet earth, savory cooking spices, a spice bazaar. Crazy nose. Chestnut as well. Library. So old school smelling but still clean. Very fresh. Elegant and lifting aromas. After a bit red florals start to develop. Initially palate is tannic and elegant. Very spicey, very fine pearly tannins. Big, but well structured and so elegant and fine. I am amazed how elegant and big this wine is. The fruit starts to come out and is detailed and impressive. Amazing fruit after a while. All deep morello cherries. Really impressive stuff. Such power and finesse.

Day 2: Nose is insane today. A spice bazaar, cherry, black cherry fruits, mint with the fruit much more prominent in the nose today. Big, dense and intense but with great purity and freshness but clearly could use 4-8 years in the cellar to mellow out. Silky fruit of wonderful vividness. Long lingering and nicely mineral finish with shades of different cherries.
