Little bit floral. Very juicy. Most amazing maroon color — 3 years ago
Thanks G4 for inviting me to wine & food pairing at Il Bolognese. Deep maroon color with complex aromas of black fruits, cherry, tobacco, and spices on the nose. Full-bodied and follows by jammy flavors of blackberry, cherry, plum, chocolate, truffle, and soft peppery spices on the palate. Solid structure, firm tannins, and juicy aftertaste. Vibrant & delicious and paired well with red meat. — 4 years ago
Balanced. Good herb and spice. — 2 months ago
Has improved over past vintage & still at 11$. Slight grainy texture & fine tannins, maroon/red-black color. Medium to light viscosity with small red berry fruit predominant-but surprising depth, like a Beaujo Villages on steroids. Strong enough acid, & the mid palate wobbles but for this price, it’s Valencia rocks. Served slightly chilled on one of those 90 degree days, East Coast. — 8 months ago
Dark as a bruise on a black cherry in the glass. Purple beyond the maroon and blood red of most Cab. Smells fruity with a hint of animal sweat, and a little tobacco. Flavor is intense, rounded and juicy. Bit of tart cherry syrup and blackberry custard. Little bit of light roast coffee. Plum pits. Tannins are there, but not a drying as they could be. Oolong over English breakfast. Hint of tea tree oil and menthol cough drops. Dark chocolate cherry cake finish. It’s a nice-drinking, well-rounded, New World Cab. The berry-licious core gives it bounce and brightness. Good on ya mate! — 3 years ago
Needed a moment to breathe. Super smooth— went great with grilled venison blackstrap — 6 months ago
Dried cherry, leather, sandalwood, caramel, faint potpourri notes on the nose. Maroon fading to brick red on edges of the glass, medium light body, more earthy & savory on the palate, nice frame of medium acidity ending with robust mouth-coating tannins but still a far cry from a young Barolo. I’m experiencing why #barbaresco is such a food friendly wine - set off so well with herby Porchetta and cremini mushroom creamy pasta. — 2 years ago
Took about 35 mins to open up and wow! Great with Filet. Alive and flavorful with soft tannins. Fruit forward with a balanced finish. Very easy to drink. — 4 years ago

Winery in the movie “A Good Year”. PnP. Wine has a big barnyard, cow shit nose; which I kind of like. Dark red, deep maroon color. Lovely texture with low alcohol. Nice balance of cherries and plums, with earth and terroir. Love the uniqueness and rich depth. — 23 days ago
