4 years after trying this vintage the first time and calling it Nirvana-esque. I rescind. Didn’t live up to the expectations. Less Nirvana and more Skin Yard. It’s a decent nebbiolo, but if you’re gonna call it a Barolo, it lacks.

Rich and ripe fruit that is ready to drink now. A good beginner's Barolo - no "scary" tannins or acidity. It is more about the fruit. Very friendly price (£28).

Jun 4th, 2022Complex and balanced, this is a good representation of what should be expected from the Nebbiolo Grape. Aromas and flavors of cherry, spice, anise, floral, leather, and earthiness. It ends with a long, smokey finish.
