A celebratory wine and breath of fresh air upon opening. Round with soft tannins and beautiful fruit! 2007 vintage.

Big tannin still, rose petals, bramble fruit, licorice and earth. Great wine. Could go another 10-15.

Excellent modernist barolo, much better on day 2, heat and oak lessened allowing minerality to come through. Succulent black raspberry fruit, vivid and fresh w great acids, extremely aromatic rose, tar, and black raspberry nose. Firm, yet lightly gripping tannin, and expansive palate. Very good 'soft' la morra barolo! 2007 vintage.

Latest addition to the portfolio. The Giachini Cru in La Morra is probably my favorite vineyard. Silky and naughty!
