Took about 1.5 hours to open up, but then it was singing. #pizzasunday

Lavender notes. Hints of raisin. Thoroughly enjoyable Barolo. This is a Ceri selection from biondivino.

Good stuff but so young. Rich plummy fruit needs time to integrate the tannin, but this will be lovely with time.

My last wine of 2016. While young, it's still approachable. Nice balsamic notes, tar, and menthol on the nose. The mouth is red fruit with firm but balanced tannins. Lengthy finish. Buon Anno!

Drank with friends during a trip to SF. Could use a few more years but still totally drinkable and delicious.

Opened for 3 days before I tasted this. Just starting to soften. Beautiful nose, good fruit, but the spice and grip has softened a little. But that's after 3 days. Sill has that ethereal Barolo quality though.

Un barolo pronto in bocca ma avaro al naso, stappato è chiuso e dopo un ora è ancora molto chiuso. La bocca regala qualche soddisfazione sia in aromi sia in struttura è soprattutto i tannini sono molto meno aggressivi rispetto ai tanti suoi coetanei. La base c'è ma è da risentire col tempo

One of my favourite people I met at vinitaly this year. A true farmer. A bit of tar and major rose bush

Meaty savoury notes, a bit surprising for a Barolo this young but very good indeed. More sweet red fruits notes after but still savoury on the palate - really good here
