There was a Xmas pudding element here, with a complex wave of warm spice alongside plums and figs. Plus some violets on the nose. Rustic, elegant, evolving. Very nice wine. Drinking well now, could last a few more years probably.

Decent Nebiollo, not as tarry or robust as a good Barolo, but interesting. Seemed to have structure more like a stronger Pinot, but with minerality and earthiness (a prior note mentioned "rustic"-I agree) and ripe fruit that you get with Barolo, just lighter. Don't know that I would pay $24.99 for it again, but I am glad I tried it.

Granato di media compattezza. Naso scuro, minerale (goudron), cenni di kirsch e di cenere. Rustico, gradevole, grande freschezza
