I put “mild” before “foxiness” because it was more than subtle - it was just relatively mild compared to hardcore foxy hybrid varieties. My bottle got oxidized quickly, so it might be overdue or storage condition at the store was not great. I still enjoyed it for $20. Sounds like your past bottles were better, now I’m curious to try other vintages/wines from this producer.

Will definitely keep my eyes on “In the Rocks”, hopefully the winery waitlist will open up soon. Rock funk is something I would love. Thanks again.

2/27/23, 11:13 AM - Thank you for sharing your recent experience and thoughtful comments. Your point regarding “the wine needs more time when it feels tight” is totally valid, and I deleted the word “drink up” from my note.I’m still inclined to say that the bottle I had was better at “youthful fruited stage”, based on the day 2 experience after it opened up a little. This doesn’t mean that I consider this wine as just a generic Langhe Nebbiolo - this is a lot more than that and belongs to its own special category to me. Since your bottles are in good condition now are are still improving, I wish I had more bottles of this to keep track of how it evolves. I look forward to seeing your next notes over the next three years.

4/18/21, 6:27 AM - Thank you for you comment on my note. I found your note very insightful especially regarding the temperature/decanting recommendations (I started from cold and consumed slowly to give it time to warm up in the glass/bottle - and witnessed the exact same change). Also I’m curious to try aged version of this (in my experience similarly styled Poully Fuisse aged beautifully). Regarding broader regional/climate context I have to study/think more (or have to stop thinking and just enjoy wine)... Cheers!
Thanks for letting us know about this problem. We will review your comments and be in touch soon with an update.
