2010. Still an alarming sense of freshness; as though it hasn't budged on some level. A bit more meaty and sweaty, same smoked paprika. Black truffle, bitter orange. Amazing how long these co-op wines can last; but then, I guess that's (mostly) Nebbiolo for you. I consumed just over 2 cases over the years of this. Good run. At first it appeared to have a bitter finish; but without buttery creamy mushroom pappardelle that disappeared so obviously I paired it wrong. Probably best with thinly sliced charcuterie appetizers.
