Community Tasting Note

    February 4, 2019 - Clear light red. Aromatically beautiful right from the start-red fruit, herb, pipe tobacco. It took a bit longer to come around on the palate after being decanted. Tight and tannic at first, but rapidly blossomed earthy red fruit and licorice with perfectly weighted acidity. So light, so elegant, so subtle, and so gorgeous that it had this Burgundy lover scratching my head and wondering how and why you would drink any red wine other than Nebbiolo. All perfume and seduction.

    4/7/19, 2:19 AM - What a brilliant note, describes where I am at the moment (wondering why I would drink anything other than Nebbiolo when it is that good), makes me want to hunt down some more Roagna with a few years on it
