Tobacco, leather, black cherry, earth. Very pure and intense. An inkiness and a lucid purity. Really good

Dec 3rd, 2023A little tang and tobacco. Pure dark cherry fruit. Some saddle leather and funky beef. A slight edge of balsamic. Good stuff

Jul 22nd, 2023Pure and light in color, tangy fruit, a few green notes but light plum, pencil lead and still punchy fruit. Gorgeous stuff. In great shape. Jef ROPP

May 10th, 2023Settled and pretty. Tell tale Barolo notes of tar and wood. Roses and faded plum with done dried herbs and a hint of dried orange. Balanced and transparent. Long. Very good.

Night 1 of WineBoyz Wineapalooza. Tasted blind. Very light and transparent in the glass. Light amber color. Great old Barolo nose. Notes of cherries, earth, roses, camphor. While light in color and very translucent, this has a big impact in the mouth. Tons of acidity. Nice structure. Fruit is somewhat faded but still present. Another great performance by this wine. Guessed this as the 61 Monfortino...

Mar 26th, 2022This is still quite self contained. Slowly coming out of the glass. Violets, bright cherry, salinity, gorgeous plum. Great definition and light on the elements of the palate. Getting better by the minute. Wow

Jan 22nd, 2021This is awesome. Very fresh. Iodine, rockpools, dark plum, licorice. This is vibrant, clean and aromatic. Violets, tar, black cherry. This is long, complex and, frankly, amazing. What a bottle. This’ll be a pensioner next year!

Oct 18th, 2020Leather, tar, roses, intense pure fruit. This is incredibly well preserved for a wine that’s 60+ years old. The nose is still lifted and it’s really pure and clarified. There’s a bit of stink and then real length and power. Pretty, pretty good.
