I believe this was Aldo’s top Barolo back in the day(??), this is much more evolved than the 1982 Gaja Barbaresco, drying tannins and some just barely on the downside soy notes detract, as my brother always tells me, rarely are older wines great, but sometimes individual bottles are, still a very good 43-year-old Barolo!! — 12 days ago

Succulent and bursting. Strong cherry, tar and grounded beautifully. The juice that powered the afternoon Boggle game. — 5 months ago

2019 vintage, Lighter but dirty. Still...super approachable and cleared for immediate takeoff. 04.16.25. — 2 months ago

Deep red, slightly coppery color under light, it’s young but after some decanting time it starts to open up. Nose is still restrained long after opening, but starting to show some fruit and herbaceous funk as it releases its hold. Raspberries, sherry, black cherry and wet mossy forest floor on the nose so far. Tannins are pretty prominent, dry and chalky, with a full body and long lingering finish where the jammy raspberries shine more as the song ends, even becomes a little ripe tomato as the song fades. Super young, but a great pairing for the pork belly and risotto we had for Valentine’s Day dinner and it shows a lot of promise. — 4 months ago

2013 vintage. Opened and decanted. Tasted after 30 mins and one hour. Medium body. Big concentration. Drinking nicely now but could use another half-decade of intregration to really start stretching out and revealing those Barolo secrets. 11.01.24. — 7 months ago
