Second bottle opened, much better than first. Good nose at opening, swirled it a bit and let it sit a few minutes. Of course a bit tight, but nevertheless good balance, and plenty of characteristic Nebbiolo qualities. Should be even better tomorrow. Anyway, big difference between the two bottles, which I bought at the same time. Go figure.

Just tried first of two bottles. Tastes thinned out, flat surfaced, compressed taste. Nebbiolo qualities still there, but alcohol was the first thing I tasted, and it remained dominant. Clean and well made, but I waited too long to open it.
