Resembles the flavor of the fruit of the eucalyptus tree, brightness of a red dwarf star. A subtle sweetness, grapes grown in sediment classified as clayey sand, possibly sandy loam. Overall: very tasty.

Medium ruby , wide slightly garnet rim . Red cherry , raspberry , dried herbs, touch of liquorice . Very balanced an enticing on the nose . On the palate rounded sweet red fruits , red cherry and ripe raspberry , touch of rosewater and liquorice . Quite firm , fine but ripe tannins , nice balancing acidity . Decent length , though this can be drunk now , will improve over the next 5 years and last a further 5 or so. Not hugely complex but an entry level Barolo that delivers an enjoyable experience .

$35 BIG nose. Notes of blackberry, wood, baking spice, licorice and hints of vanilla. Full body. High acid. High tannins. Medium alcohol. Off-Dry. Notes of cherry, raspberry, strawberry, balsamic vinegar, rose, and leather on the palate. This is an interesting barolo with lingering notes of sweet fruit mixed with a tangy balsamic. It has chewy tannins and high acid which fools you into thinking it's savory. Not bad!

The fruit expression is very ripe and simple. It is not as subtle and elegant as the best.
