Juicy, bright, lightly effervescent and awesome. Fun bright light great. — 5 years ago
Medium+ garnet, with a tinge of orange-brown color around the rim. Raspberry and cherry nose, along with that pencil shavings smell. Second hour of air, secondary scents unfolded with some mint, spices and lightly roasted coffee beans. Feels quite Burgundian. Silky tannins. Not much gripping. Mid weight on the palate. Nice acidity; not overly tart. Surprisingly long. The taste lingered for quite a while. 91-92. — 7 years ago
Lemon meringue and chalk. Complete and satisfying, balancing freshness and savor. Riesling-like energy. Always one of the most sophisticated Chardonnays from anywhere in Italy. #grasso #piemonte #chardonnay #langhe — 8 years ago
smooth but full, good with a red meat. Would get again — 9 years ago
Tasted flat after it was uncorked; but 30 minutes later it released full fruit -- cherries, blackberry, and perfect tannins. Impressive. — 9 years ago
Medium ruby color.
Aromas of red fruit, rose, leather.
Dry. Flavors of red cherry, strawberry, rose, hint of tar. Fruity & floral. Lovely!

Will be interesting to see how this evolves. Great aromatics and fruit on entry. Keeps going mid palate with a nice finish. — 8 years ago

Very good. I'm not any expert, but I think this wine has a future - at Tre Galline, Torino. — 10 months ago
Solid Barolo. 50 euros in a restaurant. Light and not super bold like most Barolos, but pleasant. — 3 years ago
Still youthfully dark in color with a very slight browning on rim. Upon opening still very tight and shy on nose. Decided to decant this for 3.5h prior our Christmas dinner and it started to open around 3h mark. Then it was a great Barbaresco from Treiso offering slightly darker side of Nebbiolo expression with ripe cherry, some leather and smoke, fine pepper notes. Healthy acidity and fine tannins offers solid back bone for further aging and development. I take this is 2-3 years from peak and should continue to drink several years after that. Glad I have 2 more bottles. This was a fabulous qpr back then at 23€/bottle — 5 years ago
A 100% sangiovese grape wine this balanced is rare. A hidden gem in he heart of Tuscany this wine had a hint of tart flavor that mixed well with the beef tartare. I plan to drink the whole bottle before the first meal arrives. — 8 years ago
1 1/2 years of patience, next bottle out of the case. Bold, packing a punch, still super rich with grippy tannins. — 9 years ago
