Keeps improving. Ready to drink but you can hold these still quite some time. Terrific!

Very good evolution compared to previous bottle. It’s coming all together.

2016 vintage. Could go much longer. Delicious black raspberry. Tar. Acid. Love this.

Beautiful Barbaresco which I probably will rate higher in the future. Blue fruit, cola, serious tannins. Time will definitively bring this wine to a higher level

Dark ruby coloration with some brown hints. A little bit of translucency. On the nose, cherry, vanilla, leather and minerals. On the palate, cherry, vanilla, minerals, earth, currants, and a long finish of cherry and vanilla. This wine has great length. Tannins are strong but not overpowering. Nicely balanced for a 2016 barbaresco. $50 at B-21.
