This is gorgeous. A soft edged nose with red and black cherry, dried roses. On the palate this is gorgeous and soft. The fruit is delicate and focused. Tobacco and soft wood notes come through later in the midpalate. Very classy and in great shape right now. — 3 years ago

More crappy winePre-phylloxera vines over 100 years old. Was found at the warehouse. Decanted and changed super fast. Practically every sip was delicious. Def not in the best places but super interesting nonetheless. — 6 years ago

Still youthfully dark in color with a very slight browning on rim. Upon opening still very tight and shy on nose. Decided to decant this for 3.5h prior our Christmas dinner and it started to open around 3h mark. Then it was a great Barbaresco from Treiso offering slightly darker side of Nebbiolo expression with ripe cherry, some leather and smoke, fine pepper notes. Healthy acidity and fine tannins offers solid back bone for further aging and development. I take this is 2-3 years from peak and should continue to drink several years after that. Glad I have 2 more bottles. This was a fabulous qpr back then at 23€/bottle — 4 years ago

Rivetto winery visit
Very nice one! Perfumed aromas of hibiscus. Single vineyard of Barbaresco. Sourced grapes from long time partner. 2yrs in oak 70% Slavonian and 30% French barriques, followed by 6mo in bottle. €28 at the winery door is a bargain! — 6 years ago
Mid crimson. The reasonably pale colour belies the power on the palate of this Barolo (La Morra). An earthy tarry note - a touch of mint. Medium to full bodied palate finishing with fine dry persistent tannins. I will be interested to see how my remaining 2 bottles will turn out. Should confidentally see out the 2020’s. — 6 months ago
Catsup and barbecue sauce on grilled chicken; heavy on the ginger and bursting with peppermint, allspice and peppercorn. Old one here, with brick red looks. Mint tea, gingerbread, ginseng, bay, violet extract, and ribbons of blood orange and clove, tell-tale tar, gum Arabic, and spiced tea cinnamon, orange, and nutmeg. Tastes like the season for every reason! #marcarini #marcarinichinato #chinato #vinoaromatizzato #piemonte #piedmont #chinchonacalisaya #lamorra #italianwine #seasonal #seasonalwine — 4 years ago
Very good. Sweet, but not quite like the Marcarini. Good acidity I think. Would buy again. — 6 years ago

Medium rubi colour, like a pinot noir. Very reticent nose of crushed flowers ans dar cherries. Tannic and reticent in the mouth, long and elegant, you decant first or give it another 4 to 5 years in bottle. Great barolo done in classical fashion. — 13 days ago
