  Stunning bottle of wine that kept getting better with air. Wish I had more. I love this winery. Under the radars. To seek out

  cork half soaked
  decanted for about one hour
  
  first PnP the nose was tight and the palate was coiled , tart and uptight
  with a few swirls the nose opened up
  after 1 hour decant the palate opened the nose followed.
  this is honorable length, very well balanced and the tannins are still present.
  this is what one is looking for from this address. very traditional expression of nebbiolo showing a bit of root vegetable on the palate, with ripe cherries , a bit of forest floor and a touch of licorice .
  By drinking this about 6 years ago and this was my last bottle, this wine can surely cary on for some time to come. people at the table were surprised that it was an o4 due to it's youth. this can be enjoyed now, but this can go for at least another 5 years, even 10.
  very very nice with wild boar, mushrooms and beets

  Not much fruit left but lots of acid. Felt a bit out of balance.

  nice cork , decanted for about 90 min
  
  At 10 years old, this is starting to show some nice notes of dark fruit, licorice , maybe some bark. the acidity is perfect adding freshness and the tannins are not too imposing.
  The nose was a bit timid but not totally shy, presenting blackberries, some lavender, fungi and some bark.
  all in all, really lovely. I have one more bottle of this and I'm in no hurry to open it soon.

  Medium garnet red.
  Nose: leather, with a touch of floral notes.
  Palate: it starts intense, with dark berries, strong tannins, it keeps going with good breadth, but not really remarkable. The finish is only medium. Good.
