A flat out stunning, old school Barolo. Intense, almost overwhelmingly beautiful, with haunting aromatics, translucent fruit and exceptional balance. Superb.

So young, but so delicious. Primary just giving hints of secondary flavors.

some thought not as good as the 90 we had a couple months ago... I say this one will just last longer a bit more austere but a beautiful wine

Sometime you’ve got to standup to bow down. Stellar bottle, eclipsed only by the ‘89. Incredible refinement, balance, and length. Another standout from the beppe dinner

Brunate riserva selezionata. Can wine bring you to tears? This wine can. And knock your head straight back as the aroma shoots straight up your nose and through the top of your skull. Dear god. Wotn.
