Half bottle. Nicely drinking but probably was better 5 years ago.

If this was a cult super-tuscan, it would be priced 3x as high and critics would be fawning over it. Thank God it is among the finest Piedmont has to offer. Great fruit, precise balance and a voluptuous texture. I can't say enough about this wine, and about many of the Giacomo Bologna wines, other than to note; these folks make great wines, period.

By far, the most serious Barbera I have come across. A 16% beast that opens with dark cherry, to cedar, to a long, warming bitter chocolate finish. Single vineyard beauty with a commitment to terroir. Awestruck.
