Smooth light body Nebbiolo with strong undertones of Oak and Cedar tannins. Paired with Eggplant Parm.

Was torn on this...was weirdly sweet and oxidized ... couldn’t make up my mind if I liked that or not

17/20 (92/100) Вино с ароматами вишни, клюквы, молочного шоколада, ванили и белого перца. Довольно высокая кислотность, танины интенсивные, бархатистые, чуть вязкие. Отличный насыщенный вкус. Лучше ещё придержать, но сейчас тоже неплохо.

Reminded me of the importance of a glass. This was first tasted in a small tasting glass and then in a Pinot Noir glass and the nose was night and day - the second allowed the beautiful aromatics of red fruits and violets and clove to really come through. A great Nebbiolo needs the right glass.

New world in style. Good wine but not descriptively Barolo

Had it with pepperoni pizza and chicken tenders with barbecue sauce. Decanted for an hour. Smooth spicy sweet dark fruit. I enjoyed this wine.
