Lots of blackberry and cherry character with hints of chocolate. Full and chewy, with lovely silky tannins and a fruity finish. Firm, and juicy. Best after 2013.

The 2007 Barolo Arborina is another stunner. The intense aromatics are a dead give-way for what is to follow, which is to say a virtual explosion of flavors. The Arborina boasts fabulous balance, intensity and raciness in a style that brings to mind the wines of Henri Jayer. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2032. -Antonio Galloni

Dark red. Deeper aromas of plum, mocha and brown spices complicated by coffee and menthol nuances. Wonderfully sweet and lush in the mouth, but given shape and balance by graphite and spice notes and a firm tannic spine. This superb Barolo offers an outstanding combination of sweetness and energy. 93+
