This one had good bones but the slightest hint of vinegar on both the nose and palate - and the telltale orange rim in the glass. Drinkable but maybe just OTH and couldn’t measure up to the previous reds — 7 days ago

Among some wonderful 2008 Barolos, this Cicala was a standout. Excellent length and complexity. — 2 months ago

At age 55 it’s a bit faded. A little tired. But has an elegance and a weightless quality to it. Fruit not vivid but very much alive. Well balanced. This Granbussia, according to the label, was from Bricco Colonello fruit. Lovely. — 15 days ago

I'll leave the detailed reviews to the professionals. I've had this in the seller for a few years. Finally opened, decanted, let it sit for about an hour. Fantastic tannins on the finish. Exactly what I like. Does not disappoint.  — 3 months ago

Weighty and deep. Dark colored. Mature to the point of being a bit too aged. Tannins were mellowed but it just seemed like a less lively bottle this time around. — 2 months ago

Loved the wine — strawberry, dried strawberries, a bit of herbs (mint?). Not too tannic but dry. — 2 months ago

Really nice. Andrew can’t place nose. Did we buy at Pogos’s? — 4 months ago
