First experience with this producer. Holy moly it is good for a young wine. I loved it. Tar, dark cherries, iron, sage and rosemary. Awesome

As far as Barolo goes, I think this is the best one I've ever had. So pretty, detailed & complex. It's alive.

Infanticide. But, had to break the case eventually.

Possibly the best '95 Barolo I've had to date. Pretty, sweet and perfumed with resolved tannin and great acidity.

2005 amazing. How good is this Barolo?! Ready to slam, but heaps of life left. Awesome, one of the best Barolos I think I've ever tried. Seriously.

dried fruits and petals, coffee, herbs on browned meat, rust; old-school sincere Nebbiolo never disappoints.

Amazing complexity and still vivid, youthful and bursting with fruit, spice, white flowers, tar, red licorice and an old-school, perfectly pure structured palate. Long, fresh finish.
