Deep red, slightly coppery color under light, it’s young but after some decanting time it starts to open up. Nose is still restrained long after opening, but starting to show some fruit and herbaceous funk as it releases its hold. Raspberries, sherry, black cherry and wet mossy forest floor on the nose so far. Tannins are pretty prominent, dry and chalky, with a full body and long lingering finish where the jammy raspberries shine more as the song ends, even becomes a little ripe tomato as the song fades. Super young, but a great pairing for the pork belly and risotto we had for Valentine’s Day dinner and it shows a lot of promise. — a day ago

First bottle had oxidation and was a touch towards vinegar.

2nd bottle was fresh and gorgeous. Great fruit flavors. Somewhat apricot and floral. Lovely. — 2 months ago

単一畑のブドウで手掛ける希少なバルバレスコ。30年近い熟成を経てもまだ生き生きとしている。フローラルな香りと薄めの色合いとビロードのような質感。優しいチェリーとクリーム。素晴らしいワインだかかなり高価。@Onda Tokyo l小売価格120,000程度 — 2 months ago
