November 10, 2023 - Clear. Light brown/red colour. Classic nebbiolo nose. Tannins have softened, now has Turkish delight, sweet cherries and charcoal on the palate.

August 16, 2023 - Dinner at Chengdu Impression (Chicago, IL): Hard to get a read on this tonight with so much riesling, and nebbiolo isn't exactly a good pairing with Sichuan food either. Comes off with high alcohol and a really disjoint character (and I tried to clear out my palate as best I could). Now this has always been the perennial dog in the Produttori lineup, but I couldn't really distinguish whether it was that playing out again tonight.

November 10, 2022 - Un Nebbiolo de distinction, d’une grande pureté. Son âge relativement avancé ne l’empêche pas d’être un peu cachotier :) Mais l’attente vaut largement le coup, comme nous l’avons découvert pendant notre long dîner. Des cerises, pétales de fleurs, un peu de réglisse, le tout dans une enveloppe discrète et un peu réticente. Un régal pour le palais et l’esprit.

August 26, 2022 - This still has plenty of time to develop but starting to drink better than it did 2 years ago. Needs plenty of air (like 6 hours) if opening now.

July 2, 2022 - Fantastic nebbiolo after 4 hours in decanter. Head and shoulder ahead of 2005 Mortet Gevrey village with mature notes of leather and liquirice with beutiful sour-sweet cherries. For sure more development and tertiary notes to wait for but really delivered on all cylinders this evenening. WOTN.
