2014. Interesting that I had the previous vintage almost a year ago. Nice coincidence. Like last year, this is a splendid wine, elegant and perfumed. The 14.9 abv is seamlessly integrated. Nothing jammy excessive about this wine at all. A true delight. Plainly, it’s damn tasty. Yeow! — 8 years ago
Had high expectations for this wine and it did not disappoint. Refined and very smooth. I wonder if a few years will improve this wine. — 10 years ago

I had the 2012. A delicious Dolcetto. Rich fruit and perfect balance. Probably the most wonderful Dolcetto I have had. It is age-worthy and should be able to go at least eight years in the cellar. If you think of Dolcetto as a light-weight wine you need to experience this. — 11 years ago
Lovely nose, floral, whit flowers, jasmine, honeysuckle, on the palate there is stone fruit, fresh cut white peach, juicy pear, some minerality, wet stone. Nice balance, medium body, medium acidity, I wish the acidity was a touch higher. Perfect wine to drink while roasting a chicken. — 11 years ago
So smooth best merlot I have tasted , — 11 years ago
What a fun find. A soulful, rustically charming side of Etna. This captures more of the nebbiolo-esque side of nerello, sleek and dusty tannin, tart cherry, tobacco, argodulce, smokey minerals. Old-school winemaking meets incredible terroir with local grapes, the essence of what makes Italy so great. — 8 years ago
Been drinking Pinot lately, but I think this might be my choice for a while. Very light and fresh tasting. — 10 years ago
I was surprised with the balance and structure. Acidity in a dolcetto? I dig it. — 10 years ago
Named for the three sisters in the winemakers family, this is one of the best wines on the planet. Paso Robles region. I truly believe Paso wines are incredible! — 11 years ago
I liked it. Tom did not. Thought it taste nothing like a Barolo. Dried Rosemary wood. — 11 years ago
2009 vintage of this very nice wine. Glad I have more of it! — 11 years ago
I fucking love this wine! — 8 years ago
Nicely balanced, nuanced, and unique. — 8 years ago
Will I be able to stop after two glasses of this 2015? Absolutely not! Served with penne/bacon/bell peppers and cream and lots of crushed black peppercorn. (But with a pork tenderloin w/rosemary and fennel...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 — 9 years ago
Very lovely. I suggest opening up and letting it sit for at least a day. Then the fruits and flowers and earthy goodness really shine! The oxygen also turns those pesky tight tannins so smooth and delicious. — 10 years ago
Complex, rich. Lots of dark fruits and leather and chocolate. But not fantastic. Some flaw I can't put my finger on. Good nonetheless. — 10 years ago
Hands down, favorite wine I've ever had. I prefer sweeter wines for sure, and this one is perfect for any occasion — 11 years ago
I've probably had more of this wine than any other all year and its unfortunately been inconsistent. Some have tasted corked, others I would put against the best Barberas out there. Then again, there's a reason I will come back to this bottle, because when it's good, it phenomenal for an under $20 Barbera d'Asti. This particular bottle was middle of the road good, not amazing compared to what else we've opened tonight. Definitely sweeter than what I remember, but not in a bad way. — 11 years ago
Whoah, what a surprise. It was like a punch in the mouth that I enjoyed and kept going back for more. Much stronger and heavier than it looks. This gem holds its own with notes of tobacco and leather with an earthy finish. — 11 years ago
I really love this Barbera. Might have a blind spot, but totally skews QPR! Atypical, but great. — 12 years ago
