Vigna del Gris Barolo Nebbiolo 2006

Aug 2025: PnP ready, very good nose, almost lost fruit, strong tannins. Very nice first 30 min, then faded away quickly in one hour — 10 years ago

Vignota Barbera d'Alba 2022

On the nose, this is bright blackberry, raspberry, and foreboding char... On the palate, this becomes all cranberry to me... Concentrated... Juicy... Acidic... Refreshing... Leather... Tannins are just carpet-level... Bright all the way theough a long finish... Cocoa? I love a great Barbera and I chose this wine as a pairing for a Carbonara pasta dish I was making... I thought this was an outstanding pairing nicely cutting through the oiliness of the dish, playing well with the egg, and honestly the length here made it a great sipper between tastes of the pasta. Loved it. — 2 years ago

Bussia Barolo Nebbiolo 2004

Very tannic and acidic even after a couple of hours of decanting. It needs several hours (about eight) in the decanter to calm down and open up. Earthy and smokey. Dried dark cherries, pomegranate, tar, cedar, leather, and spices. Powerful and dense. — 5 years ago

Deliciously bright berry fruit on this blend of 80% Freisa, 10% Cab Sauv & 10% Merlot. Wonderful depth of earthy spicy undertones and a long soft finish. Great with mushroom pizza and roasted veggies on a casual Tuesday night. — 8 years ago

Barbera is supposedly "pizza wine" but I find it more structured than that. Nice :)

Cerretta Langhe Nebbiolo 2008

Very light color almost like a rose. Spectacular aromas of blackberries, Kirsch, lemon zest. Tea leaves on the back palate. Very unique none of the leather one usually gets in Barolo's. — 10 years ago

I love this wine but it seems a bit sweeter tonight. Probably should have served it before the tannic Nebbiolo. — 11 years ago

Conterno Gattinara Nebbiolo 2020

Delectable Wine
9.4

The 2020 Gattinara is elegant and lifted. Crushed red berry fruit, cinnamon and orange peel grace this ethereal, nuanced Gattinara. Bright saline notes and sweet red-toned fruit build into the long, persistent finish. Understated and silky, the 2020 is exquisite. All this needs is a few years to soften.

Monforte d'Alba Rosso dei Dardi Red Blend 2014

One of the great values from Piedmont (imo). Violets, cranberries, blood orange. Sustains well. Very rounded and balanced. Packs a punch especially given the decidedly mid weight body. Excellent. — 7 years ago
