  • Ettore Cerretta 2010 vs 2013: Beide Flasche. 3h dekantiert. Zum Essen Polpette in Tomatensauce. Tomate als Begleiter bei Beiden ein Must! Beide im Trinkfenster. 2010 erst am Start, 2013 bereits satt angekommen. Nase: 2x kühle Frische, viel ganz viel Brombeer und Lakritz. Aber 2010 mit mehr Noblesse, mehr Tiefgang - Erde und Laub sowie Kaffee; Kräftiger und vielschichter. 2013 tänzelt noch ganz wenig, obwohl dunkel, doch noch hauch von Rotbeernoten und viel Gewürz. Beide sehr rund; Lust auf mehr. Gaumen: Beide transferien sehr schön. 2013 offen und oppulent, eher auf der leichteren Seite, langer Abgang, Tannine gewohnt grippig. 2010 wesentlich dunkler; Tannine molto agressiv; Tomatige Speisen ein Must - noch wild. Fazit: Eat! Ohne Essen sind die Weine ein Killer. Beide im Trinkfenster; 2013 ohne schlechtes Gewissen - 2010 kann auch noch gut +5 Jahre zugewartet werden.

  • Alluring, bright deep jeweled ruby colour. WOW! nose that is as perfumed as the Tignanello 2004 we drank with it but higher piano notes and more graphite and pencil lead. Quite lean but beautifully proportioned femininity on the palate. Good length. Has probably recently entered its drinking window but absolutely no rush here. 92-93 with lots of upside. Thanks, Eric!

  • 100% Nebbiolo, ABV 14%. Bold and straightforward.
    Overall tone is earthy and herbal. Mushroom at first, then leather, smoky, oregano, mint, star anise, espresso, dried fruit nuisance. Very complex and savory. But still need time to soften tannin. Try after 5+ years.

  • Sehr schöne Farbe (man schliesst eher auf einen älteren Jahrgang). Nase noch etwas gar alkoholisch, jedoch schöne Noten von Brombeeren, Gewürzen und etwas Lakritz. Gaumen bestätigt Nase. Tannine noch eher aggressiv, zudem Säure noch nicht richtig eingebunden. Der Wein wirkt im Gaumen wie in seine Einzelteile zerlegt, d.h noch zu wenig harmonsich als Gesamtbild verment. Wein verspricht grosses Potential, ist aktuell aber klar noch nicht im optimalen Trinkfenster angekommen. Nächste Flasche in 3-5 Jahren.

  • Medium garnet colour. Ripe berries and dark cherry, spices and some glycerin. Very earthy, with good acidity, fine, firm tannin and very good length of the dry, black tea leave-like finish. This wine was quite tight and unrewarding on day one, and only opened up a little after 3 1/2 hours in the decanter.

    On day two, the wine was broader, more open and actually quite inviting, with ripe red fruit, ripe cherry, rosewater, marzipan and spices, and with good concentration and very good length of the balsamic finish.

    For the medium-term. I would hold for eight to ten years. 91(?)
