Not a bad Barolo for the price but if you have one, drink up, a little past it's prime but drinking ok. Bought a few bottles a couple of years ago and though wine was tight and tannic so I set them aside in my cellar. Light Ruby with dark edges and aromas of stewed fruits and hints of spice. On the palate Cherry and currents with light pepper spice and fine tannins on a medium finish. The wine was pleasant but not exciting.

Good. Light. Italian.

Smooth with somewhat high acidity. Note to self: brush teeth afterwards, lest it eat your enamel. But the taste is worth it; cherries, darker fruit, a bit of vanilla... That'll do. Kind of reminds me of the underappreciated (in my opinion) Barbera.

Solid mid price Barolo. Plenty of spice with deep tannins.

Smells like black licorice (I don’t like taste but aroma nice) smooth fruit taste and short dry finish. Why such high rating? Doesn’t taste like the horrible black licorice and fig scent. Tastes much better. than smell. smooth dark fruit taste
