Tasting Notes: This Barolo displays a classic garnet-red color with orange reflections. The aroma is rich and elegant, with floral hints of rose and violet. On the palate, it is refined, slightly tannic, and persistent, with subtle spicy notes. Perfectly suited for aging, this wine promises to develop even greater complexity over time.

Tasting note Robin Fennis: Grown on only south-facing hills of limestone. Offering an interesting yet classic nose; suggestion of sweetness, some floral tones, tar, violets, and ripe fruit. Med+ acidity and tannins. Spicy, young and energetic. This needs more time imho. 15 pts (November 2024)
