SH | bright and lively nose with dark liquorice and mint notes, bright ruby colour, juicy, savoury, bright and breezy not heavy on the palate but perhpas lacks some depth and mid palate development.Drink Dates: 2025 - 2035. 92
AJ | Very pale and light -- one of our palest today. Fragrant, graceful and refined, and our antennae begin to wave. Lovely cherry fruit with fresh-cut hay. Single-note but serene and haunting. With time in the glass, the fruit shrinks a little and the secondary notes assume the upper note -- not necessarily a good sign as it suggests that the fruit doesn't have a lot of sticking power. On the palate, our spirits rise again: this is a concentrated, even dramatic wine with encouraging complexity, too. Fine drive and surge, and the core of currant-and-pomegranate fruit is sustained and long. I still don't think that this will make old bones but it is an excellent Barolo in its vintage.Drink Dates: 2025 - 2035. 92
MP | Beautiful nose showing red cherry, cough syrup, cranberry, black cherry, wild rose and plum interlaced with ginger, hay and liquorice. The palate shows layers of velvety tannins with refreshing acidity and a wealth of aromatic complexity combining to drive the finish. The length is superb and looks to the subtle floral and fruity notes combined with Nebbiolo's signature structure to craft a truly impressive glass of wine that linger son the palate for 45 seconds or more. This is an impressive Barolo with a bright future.Drink Dates: 2030 - 2040. 98
