Truncated family party notes. Very enjoyable for a ‘17, which, fairly or not, is a vintage I generally avoid in Piemonte. Ripe, good transparency, good acids , tannins in check, but noticeable and not green or astringent. I

Rosy spices of clove and licorice on the nose, with some cherry. The palate gives emerging tertiary flavors of new leather and cedar, but it's a bit hot on the alcohol and not rounded. Medium plus acid with chalky tannins. I would guess this will prove a bit, but not a ton.

A nice Barolo to enjoy now! Fermented in stainless and aged 2 years in oak. Medium ruby color with aromas of ripe red fruits and hints of sweet floral spice. On the palate flavors of black cherry, plums and hints of figs. Tannins are firm yet open with high acidity, medium smooth finish ending with tobacco and earthy herb notes. Very nice.

Need to try one of the Cogno crus. This base level Barolo is excellent, and so persistent in 2016.

In a wonderful drinking window now- sweet tobacco and prunes on the nose and still firm yet smooth on the palate. Great classic Barolo from Young vines from the ravera cru!

Beautiful old world profile. Took several hours open but showed extremely well when it did. Medium bodied. Nice acidity. Red cherry. Spice. Touch of cigar box & cedar. Hints of leather and tobacco. Yummy.

Lovely classic pale garnet with orange tint to the rim. Aromatic with floral notes, tar, later and some cherry. Very appealing freshness - firm acidity and well-balanced. Made from youngest vines it is textbook Barolo
