complex, rich wine, tannins seemed familiar from other Piemonte wines; good Italian red for the money, though this bottle was showing its age a bit & I'd rather have had it 1-2 years sooner

Some nice stinky stink on the nose with dried cherries and cranberries. Similar flavors on the palate with strawberry and saddle leather added in. Drinking very well. ($10)

Brought to a housewarming party and drank this first. Smooth and fairly mellow with a fruity finish. I then drank some CA reds afterwards, which offered quite a contrast with their bolder fruit-forward character.

I am not experienced with Nebbiolo. I find it dry and not very fruity. $7 at Trader Joe's. Strange name. Something of the bastard. However, this does not appear to be an appellation (DOC or DOCG) wine, or even an IGT wine. I probably would not buy this again, except in case of significant budgetary restraints.
