Super lovely. Red fruits jump out of the glass with all kinds of dried flowers. Smooth acids and tannins make for a wonderful mouthfeel. — 7 years ago

Decanted and aired out the little tight beauty. Only the 2014 but has a lot to keep going Years down road. There is nice primary and secondary notes and flavors. With that low ABV the flowers and fruits and that earthy funk take front and center. — 8 years ago

2013. Still young but showing all its lovely sides after a double decant. Paired nicely with rich mushroom ravioli in brown butter sage sauce. Smooth tannins. Dried flowers and some earthy-ness drive the palate. Super old school classic Barolo. — 7 years ago

2005. Dark. Brooding. Inky. Delicious. Had it opened for two hours to decant and responded greatly. Tannins so mellow and the dark fruit intermingled with all the earthy funk. So so good — 8 years ago
