2010 vintage
Сталь, камень, тимьян, шалфей, марганцовка, калина, пьяная вишня, молотый перец, ментол, щепотка земли. Легкое тело, прозрачная, вертикальная структура, морозящие танины. Интересно и индивидуально, но местами шероховато и по-хулигански неряшливо. — 8 years ago
Not far from Langhe Nebbiolo, a little more floral — 5 years ago
Wine of the trip! — 8 years ago
Now this is an unusual wine. It is made in the Amarone style but with Nebbiolo. The district Nebbiolo qualities are present: rose, tar, red fruits, but supercharged with more richness than would every be typical old a Barolo. Although fairly weighty, it wasn't over the top such that the texture was like soft velvet, with caressing tannins. Over time it opened up to reveal beautiful layers through the finish. Certainly unlike anything I've tasted before.
Enjoyed at Babbo in NYC. — 6 years ago

It tastes like Jessica Rabbits shitbox, I’m hiding a semi in an open plan restaurant. THANKS Dirupi for your tremendous wine, it’s really helped my social anxiety! — 10 months ago
