Nearly seven years on from my last bottle consumed, and who would have thought that this wine would flesh out so nicely with the additional cellar time. Cork not very stained, but starting to crumble at the bottom. Color still clear red and youthful looking. Fruit comes forward readily, with enough acidity and moderate tannin to brace it. Not profound, but thoroughly good.

Hands down one of the most easy going nebbiolo wines I have had. Not very tannic and just mild acidity. Not much fruit, kind of sour flavor and a little bit woody. Inoffensively rustic and dull.

Delicious. More bite than your average <$20 nebbiolo. Lean, tight, great. Needs food.

No typical Nebbiolo character. Drinkable, but a major disappointment. Lacked fruit & complexity.
