Powerful, expressive red fruit. Tannins for days. Aromas have developed beautifully.

Starting to sing, with black cherry (dried and fresh), dried rose, tar, black truffle, toast, licorice, cocoa, leather, mint, and blood orange. Attractively ripe and deeply extracted, but hews to the traditional style with gripping tannin and no obvious new oak. A wine of high density, length, and complexity, in its early stages of development.

Wow. Tis a baby, but it has presence! Concentrated herbs and fruit, tobacco and subtle florals. Sexy as hell tannins, tension and structure. It's lingering finish is power and elegance. It's a beautiful thing.

Solid QPR Barolo from Costco, especially for the terrific 2010 vintage. Smooth and integrated, nothing overly pronounced.

Gorgeous. Portobello, roses, tobacco, macerated cherries, dusty nose. Feels a bit dense. Oak shows slightly dominant. Such fruit in this muscular style of Barolo. Plenty of tannins and acid. Still a baby.
