This wine is near colourless. Citrus nose with notes of lime, grapefruit, peach blossom, apple blossom and rose. Notes of lemon and lime on the palette. The body is light, high in acidity. The texture is bright, the finish is short, clean and refreshing.

Rubber band and wet dog on the nose to begin. Deep Ruby colour, lots of legs running medium fast. Forest floor on the pallet. No floral or fruit notes at all. Unripe cherries emerge in the distance. Nose softens, and notes of soil, mushrooms and plums reveal themselves. Paired with a rustic French Camembert. Light sediment in the bottle. I would imagine a Pinot Noir fan would enjoy this. Not my style preference. Wife enjoyed very much.

The wine looks purple colored. The legs are slow. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like raspberry, blueberry, black currant (cassis), fig, cherry, plum, mushroom, forest floor, vanilla, black pepper, clove and alcohol/hot. It tastes like black currant (cassis), strawberry, cherry, plum, mineral, forest floor, oak, vanilla, stoniness, tobacco and bell pepper. The body is medium/full. The wine has leathery texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity. Wife says tastes great....wants more.

Love this Nebbiolo, lots of nose and acidity. Wish I was buying at the American price point. In Canada at double the price this is great value for dollars.

Not sure if the Shiraz is greatly improved with age. Style is often ready to drink upon release.

Opened up quickly, decanted for 1/2 hr. Drinking very well. Classic Nebbiolo nose, light, well balanced. Recommended buy.

Needs more time in the cellar to be fair. Disappointed with this for a 2010 vintage. Did not love this. Not a buy at this price point.
