very very nice for the price, with med-plus body, both fruit and secondary elements, dark red fruit on the palate, felt like it could go another 10-15 years too... only outdone by its cousin (2011 Paitin Sori Paitin Riserva Vecchie Vigne) the next night

Decanted and paired with grilled Filet of beef. Brown/red color. On nose, strawberry, red currants, menthol and tobacco. Palate was similar - medium+ body, medium acidity/tannins and long finish. Overall, wine was "flat" relative to prior bottles. Not flawed, but not all that interesting. 90+/-

beautiful nebbiolo, with 13 years of age this is starting to mellow out but is still pretty bold... I think of 2010 as a pretty mellow vintage in burgundy but not sure about Piedmont... this again is getting there but I would think this is best 2025 and onward... notwithstanding, we loved it with our sausage / rotini dinner

Medium red color. Aromas of red and black cherries, leather and underbrush. Ripe, nicely structured fruit in the mouth with excellent depth and length. Round and polished on the palate. This delicious wine is just now entering its peak drinking period.
