Glugg on the nose...yes cardimom cloves cinnamon without the heat. Yummy without tasting. Red fruit burst with tobacco mid palate. Great length smooth tannins. . Loving it. 3 more bottles and drink over next 3-7 years. Drinking window open for 2009 manzone but will have to try the bricat/gramolere to see if similar love it. — 8 hours ago

Really nice concentration - almost amarone-like, with dried fruit, raisins, dates. Delicious tho - even at 15.5% abv, pretty darn balanced. — 23 days ago

Loved this wine. Not sure if it’s intentional but it has some perfectly balanced off flavors like diactyl and acetic acid. It makes it super complex with lots of dark fruit, a slight buttery taste and an acidic bite. One of the best wines I’ve had in a long time. — 6 days ago

Fruity up front, then flips to herbaceous on the finish. Dark berries, plums, vanilla, and kale. Bright acid — 3 hours ago

Exceptional. The nose is a true bouquet with honey & herbal notes. Aromatics get deeper as it takes on air. The wine opens with layers of tropical fruit with hints of lemon. Texturally this shows mild tea-like tannins. Wonderfully fresh and quite unique. — a month ago

A classic Barolo. This young version profited from a round in the decanter. Lots of tannins which goes well with cheese — 12 days ago

My first experience with a Friulian Pignolo...Wow..what a simply perfect pasta/pizza wine. Nice bright berry red color... medium weight on the palate...smoke, BlackBerry fruit, sweet red fruit and brilliant lively acidity...perfect foil to red tomato sauce and sausage pizza. Only problem being that the balance, refreshment quotient, and cravability mean a single 750 is not enough. Lost the battle w/wife for last swallow! What a great bargain for Saturday night red sauce! — a month ago
