Saturday, February 12, 2022 - Blind tasting 2.12.22

Showing jammy fruit that initially just tasted yummy, almost like candied fruit. Raspberry cream pie, maybe even some elements of fermented cream. Integrated oak. Almost tastes like there is RS which assuredly there is not. Dried roses. acid med+, tannin med -. Honestly, I thought this wine was pinot noir from st. Rita hills. It has this PN character. However, sure enough, it is Nebbiolo!! On reinspection, the tannins do come through strong enough to pursue piedmont as an origin.

After an hour of evolving in the glass, this wine just kept giving beautiful notes of cherry and roses. Just explosive on the nose. Absolutely the wine of the night. Can't wait to see what happens over the years. 93 points! high praise.
