Very structured and tight. A touch of heat on the nose and finish. Traditional style. This will need time.

Open cork, close it back, and drink 3 days later. Don’t waste a sip before. Not a joke.

Happy to be out of the routine. In Isle of Palms SC. This wine is without question a baby and I feel a bit ashamed to end its slumber. Rosey with tall tannins. Excellent but better later.

One of our absolute favourite producers. Much less fruit this time trying with a more pronounced tar and tire flavour. Paired well with lamb

The post COVID slump buster. Classic Barolo profile - cherries, dried rose, deep tannins. Tight on day 1. But love that I can have a glass, recork bottle and know it’ll taste even better the next day.

Liked this a lot, structured that needs more time to resolve some of its tannin structure with notes of cherry, floral, rose petal, spice & tar
