Drank my last of 3 bottles tonite. It has been 1.5 yrs since I tried it last. Beautiful field blend of Nebbiolo and Barbera. Super yummy, showing red fruits from Nebbiolo, black fruits and extraction from the Barbera, somehow interlaced with soil, minerality, licorice, blackberry pie, wet rocks and sage. Superb structure and bright acids separate this wine into it's high class. Drink now through 2023+, it is delicious.

Barbera and Nebbiolo field blend. Extractive black and red fruit, with minerals and rocks, espresso grounds, anise, and cherry pit. There are nice and chunky tannins with tense, welcome acidity that almost seems alien in a wine this extracted. A balancing act, for sure, but a gorgeous and interesting drink. Drink now through 2023+.

In a good spot to drink. Quite seamless blend of nebbiolo and barbera but definitely medium bodied. Nice with pizza.

This was in really fine condition tonight with berry, leather, and tight tannin and acidic punch. I’d drink any time.
