Rich and redolent of deep black fruit initially, and with time, earthy overtones show through. This 2004 needs 5 to 12 more years to integrate and show its potential. Very nice wine.

Fading white flowers and gentle rose petal aromas complicate the tar and tart cherry flavors. Tannins are still very present, providing structure and seriousness on the all dry and high acid finish. Great complexity, balance and a classic feeling on the mineral-laced, layered finish.

Hello barbaresco! Glorious bottle, with tons of life left. Really sets a new standard.

Bigger, black currant and seems a tad higher in alcohol levels. The fruit driven, full bodied profile perhaps representative of the vineyard.

Depth, structure, longevity, and long fruit; hard to ask for anything else. Near perfect wine!
