What a fun wine! Perfect with a Neapolitan pizza. Fabio Gea is a genius. All his wines are so vibrant and alive. This slightly sparkling, savory Nebbiolo is unlike anything I’ve ever had. — 2 years ago

This was a total brute last year, now emerging with concentrated black fruit, very lifted and mineral. — 4 years ago

Chocolate? Black cherry or some other dark berries. 16.99 from wf on sale. Smooth, hardly any tannins. Cork says "indulgence granted", cute. — 7 years ago

Great stuff! Drank well with chicken scallopini. Quite dry, a rub of tannin. Tart cherries with some dirty leaves thrown into my iced tea. — 7 years ago

Backward but showing great promise for the future. Seriously structured with brooding fruit and intense minerality. 2012 vintage is another success for proprietor Fabio Chiarelotto. One for the cellar. — 8 years ago

Over the last few years, I’ve grown quite fond of Raul Pérez’s wines. The challenge is, some of them can be rather elusive. “La Penitencia” is one of those wines. So I was pretty excited to try this. Popped and poured; consumed over three days. Wine pours deep ruby bordering purple and slightly turbid with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity. There does appear to be a small amount of fine sediment clinging to the side of the glass. On the nose, the wine is intense. There’s obvious presence of VA and overall, comes across natty; more than any other Raul Pérez wine I’ve had before. That being said, it is remarkably fresh with notes of cherry and blackberry; the pits, seeds, stems and all. There’s also spices, cinder block, and un-excavated basement. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+, bordering on high acid. Again, bright red and dark fruits along with pomegranate, grapefruit, and basil. The finish is a touch mousey with a biscuity sort of thing happening but it’s tolerable and I’m pretty sensitive. This would be too wild for many. Reminds me a bit of Fabio Gea’s “Onde Gravitational”. Plenty of life ahead for these. As it stands, I have another bottle and I won’t be in any particular rush to drink it. Lovely stuff. — 2 years ago
