Apr 16th, 2015Still very oak-driven on the nose. Dark fruit with some high-toned aromatics as an accent.

Jan 5th, 2015Beautiful brick red rim. Nose of leather, leather and cedar. Wow. Somewhat lacking in fruit but this is beautiful for all of the secondary notes. Dry tannins, shorter finish but absolutely delicious. My second nature barolo and experience was a small life lesson what age can do for this wine.

Apr 24th, 2016Very nice wine. Floral, berries and a bit of tar on the nose or as Barb says licorice. Taste is well integrated with nice berries. Good long finish with a bit of an acid kick and some tannins still around. Overall getting us ready for our trip to Italy.
