A little on the ripe side for a Nebbiolo, but hey, it's grown in Washington. Surprisingly good tonight. Candied cherry, roses, leather, acid. Mari said its still delicious day 2 as well:)

Getting old. Some tomato and herbs. There’s a pine/menthol component as it opens. Some tannin but overall feels like it’s past it’s prime.

Who would have thought a Nebbiolo from Washington would be good? Very perfumed on the nose like an Italian Nebbiolo Nice acidity without overpowering. Well done

I'm flying! Gold medal. This is pretty pervy wine. Leather baby. For your mistress, not your wife.

Light with nice hints of rose and tar until the finish, which is harsh and alcoholic. Good candidate for spitting.
