Score: 90.  "Aromas of blackberries, cherries and chocolate follow through to a fullbodied palate, with round tannins and a delicious finish. This is reserved and refined. Best after 2007. 725 cases made." - JS

Score: 88.  "chocolate, spice, and toasted oak flavors on its alcoholic nose. This rich Barolo is concentrated on the palate, with dense dark fruit, macerated cherry and mineral notes that are somewhat overwhelmed by the heavy use of barrique. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2015." - AG
