Big wine with a decidedly masculine energy. Heavy duty minerality, licorice, creosote, resinous herb character and tons of dried rose petal. Tannins are more pronounced with air. This beast needs another 5 years in bottle. Going to be a badass.

Nez classique et déjà très ouvert! Surprenante attaque; nourrie, presque ronde en milieu de bouche et très long.

That floral candied nose! Wow! Still young but real fresh and smooth

More traditional style than the Coterno, more savoury notes and red fruits. A bit lighter body and tannin than I'd expect for such a young Barolo.

Starting to reveal itself but additional cellaring is needed. I think this wine is going to improve considerably

A bit too much oak for me.

Fairly easy going as befits its La Morra origins. Mid-weight with perhaps a touch too much new oak, but otherwise ripe and ready to go.
