  January 24, 2022 - Opened one hour in advance. Leathery, leafy aroma. Rich flavors of black fruit, leather, some tar. Smooth licorice tinged finish. All fruit on first opening, becomes smoother, mellower, and more complex with air. Classic nebbiolo, in a great place right now with no sign of decline.

  March 26, 2021 - Medium (+) depth, with ruby to garnet color. Smells like dry spice drawer, anise, graphite with cherry and dry components. Delicious. Nice one. 👌

  February 14, 2020 - The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are slow. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, cranberry, prune and raisin. It tastes like blackberry, prune, coffee and molasses. The body is full. The wine has coarse texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has low acidity.

  January 27, 2020 - These are finally ready to drink: fruit's in balance with the acidity. Further cellaring will, however, add more depth.
