Interesting Single Vineyard Barolo! Very “Pinot Noir-like.” Light ruby color. Intense aromas of rose petals and violets. Red cherry/raspberry fruit on the palate with hints of tar, spices and menthol. Well balanced acidy and extremely soft tannins for a Barolo. Great sipper! Not traditional-style Barolo. Thanks for sharing this interesting bottle, Kase! — 3 months ago
Dark garnet color with a ruby core. Aromas of cranberry, dried cherry, wet asphalt and dried rose petals. The palate features black cherry and blackberry fruit with hints of tar, tobacco, black pepper and baking spices. Nice mineral note on the very long finish. Medium bodied, velvety tannins and fresh acidity. — 8 months ago
Second vintage of this Umbria Merlot where Michel Rolland was involved. Still very tight with a serious tannic backbone. But… I think that this will become a beauty after some additional cellaring. If I would have tasted it blind I would have said Bordeaux. Very classic. You could ask yourself what the added value is when making an Umbria merlot which tastes as a Bordeaux one? But this is nothing more than a personal opinion — 3 months ago

100% Pinot Noir from Umbria, Italy. Quite strong with 15% vol. Alcoholic heat is present. This needs additional cellaring like the Merlot a couple of weeks ago. Promising… — 20 days ago
