Nice Barolo, not a bad value for the price. Needs more time and air. But still quite typical on the nose and enjoyable overall. — 5 years ago

Nice smell of plums and dark fruit. Definitely a good wine. By itself, the acid and sourness overpowers the fruit, but when paired with pizza, the sourness softens and the fruit emerges ... red cherries, maybe black currant. Really nice. — 8 years ago
