Classic Barolo from the lovely 2010 vintage, lots of red and black fruits on the nose: cherry, vanilla ,blackberry ,plum ,coffee, earth, cassis, fig and spice, medium to full body with lovely acidity and a pleasant classic round finish. Really appreciated by critics like Parker. My score 89, drink to 2023

Classic Barolo via the stellar 2010 vintage (now +15 yrs). Medium / pale garnet and pours to a transparent center. Pop-and-pour to taste, with a much needed 2-hour decant to follow. Bone dry, high tannin and medium+ acidity, just like I like it. Tons of dark red fruit; this is drinking exceptionally well now, but would certainly benefit from 10-15+ more years in the cellar as the nose continues to develop. The finish is long / strong and heavily structured; simply a gorgeous expression of the Rocche dell’Annunziata Riserva!

Tight and powerful as ever but with an elegance to it. Bold fruit. Wait more years for this one! A great wine!

Very young but approachable! Red fruit on the nose. Roses. Long finish.

Dense, brooding, so young but completely beautiful and perfectly balanced. A winner.
