Does anyone have some TN's on these?  Thinking of picking them up locally.

I'm a fan of Sperss.  Don't remember the 99 Barbaresco but its a chunk of change for what it is.  If you have had the Darmagi and enjoy it then go for it otherwise I'd advise caution.  The Darmagi is a just a curiousity imo.

The Barberesco is $70, Darmangi is $85, and Sperss is $90. Buys at these prices?

I haven't had any of these but the prices are good. I would buy the Sperss in a heartbeat, a maybe on the Barbaresco and agree with Dan on the Darmagi - it is not one of the best in the Gaja portfolio although that vintage might be good.

'98 Sperss for $90? Nice buys. Try outstanding buy! Where can I get some at that price? I was looking for it yesterday and the 375ml cost more than that.

Here's to the corkscrew - a useful key to unlock the storehouse of wit, the treasury of laughter, the front door of fellowship, and the gate of pleasant folly.
