Bright tart strawberries , cranberries, and lignonberries with an oak twang, some brash tannins thrown in for good measure, and a tight acid finish. A successful nebbiolo, but not incredibly well integrated or overly complex. Pleasant nonetheless and definitely suitable for hamburger night! The last bottle from my case.

Opened to breathe for 2h. Lots of raspberry on the nose and palate but a bit unbalanced, too tart. The tannin is a faded memory. Seems to be devolving and past its drinking window.

Light ruby red with aromas of red berries (cherries and raspberries). It was a little tart in a good way, clean, smooth and easy drinking. The aftertaste was medium and clean. This bottle was more complex and less tart than my last set of bottles (not cloudy either). I did decant it so it might have helped.
