Clear garnet to tawny edges. Nose of cool dark flowers, light smoke. The palate is elegant dark red fruit, fresh and noticeably but pleasantly astringent. The finish is similar and medium, and very clean. Even better after 6 hours, enjoyed with chicken liver mushroom pappardelle.

From memory. Floral nose, soft and sweet fruit palate, light and pleasant acids and tannins. Overall seemed a healthy but lighter expression of Piemonte nebbiolo, just right. Enjoyed at Nicola with veal ravioli.

More of the same, elegance archetypified.

Amazing. Serious step up in complexity and nuance from the '70 Gattinara consumed along side.

Beautiful wine. Peaked after two hours of breathing. Barnyard nose, citrus finish turned more apricot flavored with air time.
