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

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

A baby. Much better day two and showed candied red fruit, rose petals. Hold for a long time.

Haven’t really rated a wine this highly before. It’s extraordinary and the difference between it and other barolos is striking. Just wow.

Drinking very well now. A bit of ripe fruit on the palate

Had this at Ai Fiori with Salil and Swati. Excellent. $240 at the restaurant.

So pretty, with bright red fruit, acid, and transparent, elegant structure. Burgundian indeed

Bottled seems flawed with colour and nose seemingly much too advanced for its age. Even so, on the palate the tannins were grippy and while there were some earthy notes, the fruit was still present.

A baby right now but one that's built like Arnie. full of muscle and tone. This has a long way to go even if it is bloody delicious.
