  Not much changed in the year from my 2022 note; still quite interesting but perhaps waning: I’d drink up any left now (my last one).

  Garnet in glass, medium body. Nose of tea, raspberry, redcurrant, wild strawberry and a bit of mushroom, dry herb and smoke. Taste - high acidity, high tannin, dry, firm, chewy cedar, dried red fruit - cranberry, redcurrant. Interesting Nebbiolo. Needs food.

  Medium garnet. Bright red fruit (redcurrant, strawberry), violet, rose, leather, tea-leaf, spice, earth, smoke. Developing. Dry palate, high acidity, high fine tannins, quite firm but well integrated, med+ alcohol, med body, med+ finish. Opens out with decanting and time with air.
  Very good quality Nebbiolo, can be drunk now but suitable for further ageing. Still only £24 from the Wine Society - great QPR for an 11 year old wine of this quality.
