Cantalupo Aged Nebbiolo Masters (NY Vintners): Getting towards the end of the evening and this wine somehow just didn’t stick out quite as much as some of the others to me. It’s dark and a bit brooding and very young and powerful. Doesn’t have the elegance that some of the older ones have but maybe it will evolve into it.

Stunning Altopiemonte wine! On the nose: blood orange, caramelized brown sugar, roses, a touch of tar, a hint of glossy VA that morphs into herbs, esp. mint. On the palate, excellent acidity, Rainier cherry, blood orange, mint, great density. On the finish: juicy, and builds to a suprisingly dense finish with a touch of grapefruit.

Is this the ultimate expression of Altopiemonte Nebbiolo? I think it might be. Burnt orange peel, dried rose petal, dried strawberries, mint and basil. Absolutely gorgeous and right in its prime!

中午刚开瓶,气味普通,到了晚上,基本的部件都在,但是没整合到一起,不协调,没进入状态
第二次,coravin出来,气味就很不错,口感略差。三小时后最好,醋味为主的气味和味道。口中也不错,但略稀淡。还不是最充沛的状态,可能要再等一阵。另外,这个酒的颜色很深,像前两天的04 azelia San Rocco, 风格也接近。
后两次。一股金属,油漆气味,一直不散。分装小瓶几天,倒回瓶中两天,还在。即使如此,口中还是滋味十足。这算是savory的酒的极端了。缺点这么突出,但掩饰不了他的长处。90。

Still young, but already very good. Forest strawberry, cherry, black currant. Tannic. Verdict- keep 5-7 years
