Dark red colour. Violently hints of tar in the nose. Some coffe and cherries. Fruity in the mouth. Nice balance. Good acidity. Tannic
end. Very traditional style. Good wine. Give it some more years.

Second time I taste this wine. The first time I found it too tarry. The first sip reminded me of that one, but this developed greatly
with airing. This wine had a deep and lightly bricking red colour. The nose exploded with minerals after an hour of airing. Loads of
dried roses, earth and slight tar. Very typically nebbiolo, but slightly too feminine for Barolo. Good body in the mouth, but also a
bit lighter than expected. Great and mineral taste. Full expression of the Langhe-terroir. Good acidity and some tannins in the back,
but a lot less than normal for this producer. This wine was drinking surprisingly good now and needs no more cellaring.
