Nothing from Damilano sucks, to be clear! This gem was opened and I could not say no! I would hold and open in 2028-2031. Very light cherry with tones of eucalyptus and anise. Very shy, would love to have more showing in the next few hours!

This wine was structured, layered, firm but very balanced. Subtle notes of tobacco, leather, mossy forest floor. We decanted this one for about an hour before enjoying. Color was light and brickish. High acidity and medium plus viscosity. Great with a hearty seafood meal.

Good concentration with delicate red flowers aromas. On the modern side of the Barolo spectrum but this is NOT a bad thing even for a lover of the classics!

Bold and dry with lots of natural flavors. Think of wet moss, tobacco, leather, and smoke.

Полный, черноягодный, джемовый, чернослив, слививие варенье, яблочная пастила, корица, даже немножко шоколада. Тело полное, вкус элегантный, танины очень полные, суховатые. Хорошая кислотность, полное долгое послевкусие. Держать 2-3 года. 16.5/20 (90/100)

Interesting find at Trader Joe’s…about $40 and tastes more like a Barbaresco to me even though it’s marked as a Barolo. That said, love this wine! It’s a fun dance between fresh and dried fruit, slight tannins and some emerging tobacco. Highly recommend!
