Black red appearance. Sweet ripe blackberries on the nose. Rich jammy blackberries on the palate with an almost raisin finish and a lengthy tannin that lingers. Delightfully delicious. — 7 years ago

Here’s a cool one: Picotener is a sub-varietal of Nebbiolo that actually performs better than the average in more extreme conditions. This is an experimental wine and it’s a home run in my eyes. You can taste the youth on the vines, but when it picks up, I can totally see this being a new age version of my favourite grape for the future. Has a lot of the flavour characteristics that I love about Nebbiolo (roses, cigar box, cherry), but a more youthful fruitiness. Im a fan. Hope it catches on. — 4 years ago

Such a rich white almost like drinking a red with only the right amount of aftertaste. Very drinkable but too easy. — 7 years ago

This is some decadent sh!t: lemon curd, fresh pineapple, vanilla, lemon danish, angel food cake with lemon curd layers and buttercream frosting. Not sweet per se (saten is brut by definition) but ripe — 4 years ago

Diverse #wine. #Nebbiolo from #Roero. Closed, cloudy and smelling of robust cherries, and bacon fat, oil. Opened up to soft pink flowers, candy apple shell, wet soil. Color is slightly cloudy as unfiltered, bright red throughout from edge to edge. Everything opened over an hour. Flavors of soft strawberry, marachino cherry, candy apple, sweet/sour sauce, smooth. Tannins never explode, but stay moderate, harmonious with acidity. Opened 1/22/17 — 8 years ago
