Excellent. My kind of wine. Well balanced, light body, but also robust and long finish. Has decent tannins and high acidity. Reminds me of Calabretta Sicilian wines. Gaglioppo grape. Paid $20. Buy again. — 7 months ago

Amazing. I haven’t had many barbaresco and barolos. But this barbaresco w age is wonderful. Age shows beautifully. Still strong tannins, earthy, mushrooms, rich cherries, long finish. Paid $140 at resto. — 9 months ago

Ok, but I’m disappointed. Seems past its due date. Maybe a bad bottle. Rich, cocoa, stewed cherries. Not well balanced. Nose a bit hot. 13.5% al. — 4 months ago

So so. I didn’t realize this was solely a Grenache wine. I also didn’t know Grenache was produced in Marche. It was nice but nothing memorable. For $90 at a resto, way overpriced. — 9 months ago
