Orange brick color, subtle dried rose petal, red cherry, cinnamon, clove, licorice, slightly wet soil but somewhat dusty, med body, med plus to high tannin, slight minty, med plus acidity, quite elegant with some depth. 70% Nebbiolo, 20% Vespolina, 10% croatina. — 9 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. — 9 years ago

Dark fruits and an excellent texture! Really good wine for an excellent price. — 10 years ago
Intense aroma and a flavor to match! I'll use the word "everyday" to describe this but it should impress any wine snob too ;-) — 11 years ago
Spicy & smooth. Light mouth feel and not as dry as Pinot. Great body, would be perf with Italian food — 11 years ago
Less aroma than Nebbiolo but surprisingly high tannins and very healthy dense color. — 6 years ago
Beautiful floral notes - red roses hits you at first. Dried tart cherry, red currant, wild strawberry, fennel, mushroom. Touch of sandalwood once it opens up. Really nice — 6 years ago
Crispy, tart, mineral. Another great traditional Italian Rose value. — 8 years ago
Really interesting. Enough heft. A little chewy-ness and acidity. Good with duck and sweetbreads. — 9 years ago

This is insanely good Nebbiolo. Fresh and refined. Light in color but not in character. It emerges from the glass with sage, bright red fruit, nectarine and rose petals. Persistent and complex. Beautiful now but will age gracefully for years to come. Such an elegant wine. Makes me question why drink barbaresco and Barolo when you can have alto Piemonte. Contact me to get some for yourself.

Probably the best croatina I’ve ever had! Okay, prob the only one I’ve ever had. Another Lou classic, earthy, funky, tart cherries, beautiful ruby color and barnyard nose. — 5 years ago
