More of the same aromatic, so we'll balanced that it almost doesn't feel as if it has more stuffing but just radiates an impression of solidity and confidence that seems to demand time in the bottle. — 3 years ago
With risotto in Milan Italy. Paired well. Light red. Good for cool evening with friends or date. — 6 years ago
With fruits from the San Pietro cru in Monforte d'Alba and aging in stainless steel and amphora for 10 month only, this is a simplistic yet beautiful interpretation of Nebbiolo.
Ripe cherry, strawberry, plum, rose petals with just hint of forest floor. Medium elegant body. Vibrant yet composed. Soft dusty tannins. Just lovely. — a year ago
Debut vintage of this and it slays. Nose is ripe as 15 can be but it is infinitely complex. Tar, roses, deep cherry fruit. Glorious spice and so nuanced. Just keeps opening. After 5 minutes it’s changed 8 times. Wow. This is a dream. As supple as the most elite Burgundy and so sweet! Wow. This is as Chambolle as it gets. Perfect balance and stunning purity and depth. Velvet and silk of the highest level. This is the best 15 Barolo I’ve ever had. It’s not close. Wow. Sweet, sensual and silky palate that has the spherical effect in spades. Nose is impossible complex. Unreal concentration and freshness. This is mindbending. Sadly only 36 bottles. Start begging!
This has the balance that only super .0001% elite wines have. This is stunning. — 4 years ago
Beautiful concentrated Amarone, raisins, figs and dates in on palate, long aftertaste. Delicious! — 6 years ago
Incredibly mineral. The nose is all flint and wet stone. Seriously, this is smelling the sidewalk after a summer rain. On the palate you definitely get that minerality in the sense of an almost metallic twang, along with some lemon peel. Just a mouth watering, perfect food wine. — 3 years ago
Nose is intense cherry with some spice. Almost sing the lines of an elegant brunello. As this opens you get those deep fresh hand crushed rose petals that come to the fore.
Palate is intense fresh fruit. Just a super intense blast. Wow. Major acidity held in check by the fruit. As this opens this is borderline elite deliciousness.
Has this thing on the finish that implies it will explode in 3 years.
90 minute decant.

Discovered this while touring Barolo. Rare grape. Excellent from front to finish. Starts with pleasant floral with pepper in the middle. Well balanced and unique. Taking some home. — 6 years ago

Futili wine that is smooth, kind of creamy (not in a California Chardonnay kind of way though), that tastes a little like white flowers and linen. Just delicious. — a month ago
