Good Barolo and one of the best values from the Piedmont as far as I am aware of. Needs a while to open up, still tight. Could be a great wine down the road. James Suckling’s 92 points for this vintage seems high.

Oct 25th, 2018Incredibly tight at the moment so time will tell how it will open up. Distinct classic Barolo elements of roses and tar but hard to get any enjoyment from this right now. Something for 2030+.

Oct 11th, 2018Amazing.
Nov 25th, 2021A bit sharp but earthy at the same time. Needs time to open up. Could stand more time in the bottle.

Nov 27th, 2019Seems very young, I’m not gonna touch it til 2020 or beyond. Narrow profile, never really opened up. Sharp tannins.

Dec 15th, 2018Love those 2013 Barolos! Very smooth, supple tannins but decent structure. Rose petals and red fruit on the nose. Tart red currants and strawberries.

Nov 20th, 2018Excellent finish.
Oct 2nd, 2018Good, could be enjoyed without food. Light body for what I was expecting from a Barolo. Tasting preparation for Italy

Jun 15th, 2018Tight, structured
Jun 14th, 2018Very very good for a mid/low price Barolo, we let it sit for 45 minutes before first sip and found it to be enjoyable at that point, warmed up a bit and was a nice drink.
