"Ripe and juicy, offering macerated cherry, currant, raspberry, loam and eucalyptus flavors. Firms up, with a tobacco element emerging on the long finish. Feels almost approachable now, until the dusty tannins kick in. Best from 2022 through 2042."
"Light and bright strawberries and gently peppery elements, as well as light rose perfume. The palate delivers some plump, fleshy fruit with ripe tannins carrying red-cherry flavor in pure, youthful mode. Drink from 2022."
"The 2015 Barolo La Villa offers a bit more weight and density than the straight Barolo, but it, too, looks like it will offer its best drinking sooner rather than later. Pine, menthol and a whole range of balsamic inflections play off a core of dark red cherry and plum fruit in an inviting, mid-weight Barolo that will drink well right out of the gate. The 2015 has a good bit of underlying grip, but I am not sure the fruit will hold up for more than 10-15 years."
"Menthol and pressed rose petal aromas are front and center, while the taut, full-bodied palate offers mature Marasca cherry, truffle, toasted coffee bean and a hint of game. It's already accessible, with polished tannins. Drink through 2025."
Alcohol: 14.5%
