This wine is such a pleasant surprise still so young but very well balanced with a long life ahead. Only Manferrari can make a wine like this in Friuli. — 9 years ago

I enjoyed this quite a bit. Good nose, dry, good balance, nice finish. Hard to put my finger on the distinct flavors... — 10 years ago
Tangy and complex flavour. Very chatty wine. Stood up to some strong peppery flavours. — 10 years ago
First of all, go to Coquinarius in Florence. Nicola is a killer wine guy and friend. We had this our third and last time there (we were only in Florence for 3 days too...). This is still in a youthful and fruit-driven stage, with juicy and expressive sour cherries and a touch of orange peel. Score is for drinking now, but the structure and impression of density in the flavors make me want to check-in again at the 10 yr mark. — 11 years ago

ネッビオーロらしい華やかさと鉄っぽいニュアンス。
果実味は柔らかい甘さで、タンニンはなめらか。綺麗に熟成していて、まだまだフレッシュな感じもある。
味わいは自然派の作りらしく、透明感があって、染み込み系。癒し系バルバレスコ。
ただ、年末に飲んだジュゼッペコルテーゼの方が、より複雑で重心の低さと上質感を感じられるワインだったかな。 — 8 years ago
