Red fruit and thyme nose. Raspberry (and leaf) roasted vegetables (in a good way) white pepper with tannins at the edges. Opens nicely. Great pairing with lamb pasta. TBL — 14 days ago

Always a solid standby- just rich enough, balanced. But many times left with the idea that if it was just a touch more complex it would be epic. But really, it’s more than good enough, it’s amazing. — a month ago

Tough and compact. Just ripe crunchy strawberries and soaring complex aromatics. One to lay away, but massive potential. — 16 days 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! — 17 days ago
