  Small dinner to try out a new restaurant (Mihan): Part of the idea behind the dinner was to give Nebbiolo another chance. This seemed like a great option to go with. A really joyous character of stewed strawberries - some discussion as to whether "jammy" could be used to describe a wine that you like - the view of the synod was that "compote" could be used in these circumstances. Quite a bit of compote going on - also a lovely fine texture. Pleased and grateful to have had the opportunity to taste this.

  The ‘14 Monvigliero is a fantastic wine and has developed nicely since release, the last time I had tasted it. While on release I thought this vintage was a bit disjointed and overly herbal, it seems to have come together, and this bottle showed really bright fruit and floral notes.
  
  The nose was intensely perfumed immediately on opening the bottle, with red strawberry fruit, candied red floral tones, tropical fruit, and just a bit of the herbal, spicy character of Burlotto Monvigliero. Next to the 2013 Monvigliero, the ‘14 showed a redder fruit profile and some bright tropical fruit notes. On the palate, the ‘14 Monvigliero is full of energy, medium in body with almost no tannins but a nice amount of concentration, especially for this usually light wine in a lighter vintage. Next to the ‘13, the ‘14 showed about the same level of concentration and structure, which was pretty surprising.
  
  There is no rush to drink the ‘14 Monvigliero, but it was stunning right now so if you have some it is time to check in.
