Sass Russ Colline Novaresi Nebbiolo 2023

Lyle Fass
9.2

Nebbiolo, Croatina and Vespolina. Beautifully pure red and dried cherry fruit, wet earth and huge volcanic minerality. The palate is sappy, concentrated and intensely tangy, with a surprisingly opulent mid-palate before the wine grips down hard. Terrific texture and energy, though the tannins remain gritty rather than refined. A vivid, characterful Alto Piemonte red and a killer value in a future tariff-free universe. — 12 days ago

Boca Nebbiolo Vespolina 2016

Great out of the gate. Needs an hour to fully express

Nose is cherry flower, as this opens some savoriness. Some old Nebbiolo character. Some sweet wood.

Palate is a bit tight. Super elegant cherries. Some bitterness. Very silky. As this opens more sweet cherry fruit. Elegant richness.

Brilliant showing. So much energy and unreal inner mouth perfume. Nose is all roses and tar. Cherries will develop. Drinking perfectly. Huge concentration and depth. Awesome mid season cherry fruit and a terrific finish. — 3 months ago

Cantine del Castello Conti

Boca Nebbiolo Blend 1993

Wow, a beautifully aging wine, nose clearly showed age with some tobacco, dried fruits, and a hint of a lizard’s cherry! Wine still has vibrant tannins and dark fruit elegance persists for a nice balance while it developed in the glass. 1993 vintage opened and drank on 25Feb2026!!! Enjoy — 5 months ago
