Fresh and dried cherries, roses, dry leaves, cinnamon, and blood oranges. HIGH acid and tannins—this needed salty and savory food to feel complete. (Still many years ahead of it!!) — 3 years ago

Decanted for 1.5 hours first - a little rough at first but opened up - tart cherries, ripe fruit, very round and smooth but tannins have a strong grip. Great with steak! — 5 years ago

2004 vintage. Medium ruby hue. Black sour cherry, smokey and slight earthiness. Violet petals. On the palate, medium acidity, medium plus fine tannins, medium plus alcohol. Medium finish. Decent. Drink now until 2022. — 7 years ago

Unbelievably classic. The mushroom, truffle, and red fruit just dances and the acid and tannin structure is so interesting. Reminds me why I fell in love with Barolo! — 8 years ago

Perfectly balanced , already very drinkable. Very fruity with hints of strawberries. Tannins are very noble on the background, only noticeably if you wait for it — 4 years ago

Vinebox 12 Nights of Wine Night #2
Easy, light red. Dark berries, light earthiness. I would sip on this at a party or pre-dinner. Vinebox recommends refrigerating it briefly. — 5 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 — 6 years ago

Waited 2 hours and tasted.tight. 2 more hours opened up but still quite tannic but delicious cherry tobacco. Some tar. Nice. Somewhat complex but felt needed more time but delicious as is. — 4 years ago

A wonderful "starting to get" mature Barolo, decanted for almost one hour, tannins are rounder than few years back and well integrated, a pleasure to drink, a full and deep Barolo with character, an expressive wine made of Nebbiolo - Honest expressions of the terroir of Monforte d'Alba, which generally produces a bigger, more tannic style of Barolo than those from La Morra or Barolo itself. — 10 years ago
