Thursday, April 11, 2024 - A light Burgundian looking Nebbiolo, which had a silky yet still tannic backbone with usual character of the grape.

A well made wine of which I need to taste more often. I have found Nebbiolo to be intermittent at best, though recently bought a few good options, though likely need a decade in the cellar!
