Full throttle Barbaresco..big perfume, big weight 15% Alc — 8 years ago
Perfumed nose: dried flowers, chalk, plums, and milk chocolate shavings. Fruit is still bright on the nose and continues on the palate, primarily cherry notes. Hints of dried tobacco are there too. Medium weight. Slight heat on a lingering finish. Drink now, but can be held a couple more years. Paired well with grass fed ribeye, better with food. — 9 years ago

Alive and well! Great color with dried fruits, herbs and tar. Medium to light bodied — 8 years ago
Super concentrated. Thick intense opening. Very boozy and yet once it opens the wine reveals a new dimension, more licorice and sweet raisin, some earthy dusty nuances. Retains a balance through its spicy finish. — 10 years ago
Outstanding amarone which has successfully blended power and elegance. Lots of cherry liqueur and marzipan aroma. Raisin flavour with rich and velvety tannins. Tasted blind and went for hot vintage in southern Rhone. — 11 years ago

A blend of 80% Corvina and 20% Rondinella, produced from a single vineyard of 5 hectares located in the prestigious Illasi Valley, aged for 3 years in oak. Aromas of ripe berry fruits, savory spice and oak. On the palate sweet ripe plum, cherry raisians and Italian fig with cedar, cacao and vanilla. Soft fine tannins well balanced, lingering finish ending with energy. — 8 years ago
From even north of Lessona. Cherry, raspberry, blackberry and fresh plum. White pepper, red liquorice, Dried fennel, almond paste and orange rind. Fine, gentle emery board like tannins with perky acidity. Really approachable now. 65% neb, 20% croatina and 15% vespolina. — 9 years ago
