  Holding up very well! Some leather aromas, dark cherry and berry nose. Well integrated tannins.

  Went very well with prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, and garlic rubbed crostini and green olives.

  The cork is in great shape. The color has an orange edge but otherwise light-ish in the way an old style Barbaresco is. The nose is dried leaf and dried flower. A bit of dust. On the palate the wine is high in acidity with very firm tannins like an old style Barbaresco. The aroma and taste is complex with dry flower and dried fruit notes. Not sense of tiredness but probably won’t improve from here. I think this wine is great to drink now.

  I’ve written reviews, and gotten paid for them, for over 20 years. I am not embarrassed to say I misjudged on this one. This was an ugly duckling a few years ago, allacid, tannin and Brett. But it has remarkably turned into a very decent drink. It has all the hallmarks of identifiable nebbiolo. It won’t win awards for finesse or a well-integrated finish, but it’s satisfying and delivers earthy pleasure now at 11 years of age. If you have some, and I know many people bought this on the WTSO website, it’ll offer you satisfaction over the next few years. Actually has the stuffing to improve some!
