If you see this for $35 go buy it. Buy all of it. What a deal for this guy. Full bodied and powerful, but still super tight and acidic - this guy will age for awhile. Dark red cherries but with a smokey roundness and fruit preserve jam-iness.

Another modernist take on #Barolo to produce an early drinking, softer #wine that in my opinion is too soft.

Very digestible Barolo on early maturity. Nose of asphalt and violets, dark but fresh fruits and a nicely firm mouth coating tannine structure. Medium long finish. This is not overly complex or deep but it surely delivers.

Good barolo on the verge of breaking into the tertiary territory. Concentrated lush fruits, sticky tar, asphalt and softening tannines. I prefer them a step further down the road so I’ll revisit in two years.

Spectacular nose, still a bit closed mouthtaste. Time will definitively make this a stunner!
