Aroma: mushroom, earthy Palate: Tannic, concentrated, earthy, dried fruit, black tea. It started out very big but became smooth after a few minutes. I recommend it.

80% Barbera, 20% Nebbiolo. Spicy, fruity, enticing nose. Dark, deep, cool at first, rich with fruit, slightly peppery, smooth and not overly-prominent tannins - the Barbera showing well. A hint of tar and some floral characteristics from the Nebbiolo, good balancing acidity overall, finishes with lingering heat.

Dark cherries, light finish, mild acidity & minerality. Drank from cellar over 2 nights. Great bargain wine!

Rasberry, licorice, blackberry cinnamon and a bit of tar.
