Cuvée from five excellent domaines. Tea dominated. Needed some rustic food…
A few hours in the decanter helped.

Jan 14th, 20222016: Surprisingly good Barolo, one of the less expensive Damilano bottlings. Classic sour cherry, tar, leather flavors with tight tannins that loosen up after 4 hours. Good concentration and mouthfeel for this 2016 version with better mikes ahead. $45? At JFW.

1 person found it helpfulOct 1st, 2023Parking Lot - Trader Joe’s 30$ Barolo. 14.5%. Tasted on the spot! With the mini snack cups from T.G. Brownish tinge, tealeaves and quite tart. Lacks classic Barolo flavors - will pass up on this one. Sad 😞 - Great vintage how can anyone screw this up? Might this needs hours of air and or a proper glass? Will add to these notes - in 3 hours. May be i am wrong?

Dec 14th, 2024If I could only drink Barolo, Nebbiolo & Dolcetto for the rest of my life I think I’d be okay with it.

Aug 3rd, 2024Not a favorite. Too tart - even after several hours. Seemed to be underripe. Light on the cherry and raspberry with tar, tobacco, and earth on the palate. Tannins we’re fine - lingering and balanced. Disappointing for a 2016 vintage.

Sep 27th, 2021Excellent value, surprised at how well this wine was integrated despite its age. Black cherry, blackberries, mushroom, and vanilla. @ Massimo Camia
