Stephen Brook: Deep brick red. Brawny, meaty nose, but has some lift. Lush, opulent, concentrated—a touch soft for young Barolo but has density and tannins. Moderate acidity lifts the palate, without giving it much persistence. This sags a bit and lacks energy. There’s sound fruit but little vigor, and the finish is relatively short - 14.5

Jancis Robinson: Mid-ruby. Intriguing leaf mold on the nose. Not that intense, but good balance and savor. Sweet start, then angular. Chewy end. True even if not the most mind-blowing. Very clean. Not flashy. Respectable. Appetizing. Drink 2013–19 - 17
