Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of four days. Best of Day 4. The 2020 Classico pours a beautiful garnet color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of tart and ripe red fruits: strawberries, cherry lozenges, pink roses, tar, talcum powder and dry earth. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose though the fruit comes across more ripe than tart. The finish is long and saline. This is an elegant, sexy Barolo with sneaky power that’s only revealed with enormous exposure to air at this stage. Drink now with patience and through 2040. — a month ago

Garnet-colored. Hits like it might be astringent but immediately smooths out and rolls across your tongue leaving a layer of tannins that diffuses nicely. If you swish it around, it will make you pucker. Very dry but buttery if you keep it centered in your mouth. I bought it because of an average rating of 9.3 for this 2020 vintage but I don’t think I’d rank it that high. Maybe a 9.0, a little disappointing for $50. — 8 days ago

2019 vintage. Medium heavy bod. Tar, earth, dark cherry in the nose. High acidity/tannins painfully evident and only tackling this because some greedy human insisted. Visited easily 15 years too early. Mostly structural currently while the dark fruit tumblers slowly click into place. 10.30.24 — a month ago

Had a dinner with my close friend. This is a gift from a restaurant to honor my loyalty to them. I tried this wine for other vintage and i'll review it once again for 2017.

On nose its straight Roses parfume, wild respberries, tar, and licorice

On palate, i sense a complex Spices, high acidity, violets, cherries, medium bodied with sharp intentisity on mid palate. This is still my favourite to taste barolo for some cheese pairing. Cheers everyone! — 20 days ago

What a wine, so fresh, juicy, harmonious and elegant. This will evolve nicely and gain even more complexity. 97++ — 16 days ago

Tough and compact. Just ripe crunchy strawberries and soaring complex aromatics. One to lay away, but massive potential. — 19 days ago
