Sunday, December 11, 2005 - Pio Cesare Nebbiolo d'Alba 2000: Just a moderate intensity of colour to this wine, which has a ruby hue with an orange-pink tinge. The nose offers aromas of rose petal tobacco and roasted fruits, and with some air it takes on a haunting, captivating elegance. Lovely balance on the palate, which has spicy fruit, with a leathery edge, backed up by some ripe and spicy tannins. Firm, tingling acidity keeps the wine fresh. Elegance with a touch of power. Nevertheless, it's showing some evidence of maturity, and I would advise drinking now or over the next few years. Very good. (7/7/03)
