80% Nebbiolo, 15% Vespolina & 5% Croatina
Color not of a wine of only 5 years...deep yet translucent ruby, brown edges, stunning.
Nose, I'm in love! If there was such a thing as a cherry with rose petal that was actually a rock and you could eat it without losing all your teeth or you're a Rock Biter, this is that wine!
Palate...cherry, cherry and did I mention cherry? Oh Nebbiolo how I love thee. Baking spice, anise, oh the palate is continually changing, I'm confused and over joyed, god damn life is complicated, or is it easy?
Paired this bottle with 4+ hour, slow/low grilled spare ribs and Brahms 7th Symphony, amazballs as my buddy would say!

Superb! Rose (imagine the e with the right accent) has not been my fav, but they are certainly becoming better. This is a very good one, especially for my fellow dry wine lovers. — 7 years ago

Perfect with my garganelli--structured, rustic nose with a palate to match; barely overripe red fruits, earth, mushroom (but not too funky). May not be quaffable. It opens up. — 8 years ago
2007 vintage
Блестящий, прозрачный цвет с медным краем. В носе немного грязная бреттовая, но не неприятная нота прошутто крудо и глины, к которым добавляются тона тюльпанов и красной смородины. Во вкусе пьяная вишня, калина, чуть-чуть лавра и молотого перца, выраженная минеральность. Приятная тонизирующая кислотность и тонкие, графичные танины. Легко и свежо, но с хорошей структурой и глубиной. — 8 years ago

Less aroma than Nebbiolo but surprisingly high tannins and very healthy dense color. — 4 years ago
