While not the greatest Barolo on earth, for the 15$ you'll pay for it, this one will remind you why you drink Barolo in the first place

Apr 13th, 2016Essentially junk. This is the Barolo from Trader Joe's. Unrecognizable as such.

Apr 12th, 2016This wine opened up and mellowed after 45 minutes or so. Was way too much tannin at the first taste. Smells like a light tawny port. Light is the key descriptor - it's definitely not a Barolo fruit bomb. I think you get what you pay for with this wine ($15); it's not a typical Barolo at a cheap price, but it's definitely a decent wine.

Mar 13th, 2016Not terribly interesting, some tannin and acidity. No real do doh though.

Feb 28th, 2016Is it like a $40 Barolo.... No. But it is delicious and easy to drink, especially with some spicy red sauce. For $15 dollars, not too bad.
