More time in the bottle would likely elevate my rating, per other reviews below…
WS: 94. Stitched with pure cherry and raspberry fruit, this red is supple and fragrant, showing lovely harmony. Mineral, tar and eucalyptus accents add detail. There's plenty of structure, with vibrant acidity and refined tannins focusing the finish. Elegant, with the potential to develop over the next two decades. Best from 2027 through 2045. 5,800 cases made, 4,000 cases imported.
JS: 93. There is a rustic, iron-like, rugged quality to this full-bodied and firmly tannic wine that will mellow somewhat with time. But enjoy it for the balsam, tar and red cherry aromas that lead to a meaty, mineral palate. Best from 2027.

Blended from different communes within barolo. Very vegetal but tasty wine.

Apr 21st, 2025Medium ruby to garnet in color; bright cherries, raspberries, and dried leaves on the nose; high acidity; high tannins; tastes like raspberries, cranberries, tart cherries, tabacco, and asphalt with a long finish. I love this wine

Still a bit fruity on the nose mostly tart cherry quite delicious. I’d to let it open for another 20 minutes and keep in my cellar another 5 years. Thanks Costco for carrying this 🥂

Jan 7th, 2025Dark and earthy with tar, tobacco, cherry, and vanilla. Rich but a touch bitter for my palette.
