Slight orange tint on the edge reminiscent of Barolo...wait isn’t this what we’re drinking? 🤪
Fresh rosemary, sage. A little hint of cedar. Dried violets. Potpourri.
Medium to full tannins.
Medium acid.
Peppery, unripened plum skin.
Tobacco, leathery. Still very young but drinkable with a hours of decanting. Will make a great breakfast wine if you know what I mean.

Truly delicious, fantastic #langhenebbiolo at a great bottle price at one of my favorite restaurants for my mid-week birthday. Soon after opening this Piedmontese red is crooning with rose petal, cherries, touch of tar, spices on the nose. Finely balanced on the palate, robust but stately tannins, earthy notes, excellent with a variety of Indian-Portuguese appetizers.
