A decent color and deep rich nose. This is in pretty good shape. On the palate quite sweet but a little blocky and a quite short finish. Considering it’s age this is decent but it could be a bit more refined and complex. — 14 days ago

Fairly stunning chardonnay. Needs a little time still to integrate or smooth out but it’s not a heavy-toast disjointedness. Could be really epic in 3-5 years. — 16 days ago

WNH Barolo theme.

Not having any experience with this producer, I tried a small glass at pop and pour, then decided to decant for an hour and a half. I then enjoyed the bottle over the next two hours.

I’m between a 92 and 93 here. If I had tried this blind, I think I would have taken this to left bank Bordeaux. As odd as that sounds, my reasons are mostly due to hardly any floral notes at all, and a hint of leather on the palate (with both the classic Barolo and Cabernet finish showing drying tannins). The longer this was open, the more cherry menthol notes picked up (but not in a bad way). Red currant, cherry and vanilla Pope tobacco, and underripe fleshy black cherry skin. Sporting a classically warm 2007 profile with richness and tannin, this powered through the entire evening and was best about halfway through. I’m sure it can hold many more years, but this is at a stage where the fruit is fading to the background and savory herbs, dates and fig will soon make their way to the forefront. Just depends on your preferred Barolo style. Enjoyed from a Grassl Cru glass which does a great job of accentuating the aromatics in old world wines. — a month ago

Delicious find! Elegant Nebbiolo with bright red fruits, including cherry and a tad floral on the palette. Softer tannins. Lovely! — 21 days ago

Unchanged from release - textbook Dolcetto but really tight, took forever to reveal the goods: red and black fruit, leathery notes, licorice, savory, pepper, dusty edges, w/nice firms tannins integrated w/juicy acidity. — a month ago

Powerful and balanced. The flavor is characteristically Northern Italian, if lacking depth and complexity. Decent value for a ready to drink Barbaresco. — a month ago
