Best wine I've ever had from here. Great structure and a classy, long lasting finish.

Feels like infanticide to drink such a young Barolo, but a lot going on here already. Powerful yet delicate with nice crushed dark fruit notes.

Less tannin than Luigi Pira, more fruit, very age worthy

Good, but not showing the typicity I was looking for, wanted tarter red fruit and firmer tannins. This has a riper fruit profile and the tannins have already softened considerably. Drinks well now.
