  July 9, 2020 - This 2010 Campi Raudii was slow-oxed for five hours, then decanted and served immediately, but that formula didn’t work; it took almost one hour more to open up in the glass, so I will definitely skip the slow-ox and have a longer decant next time. This is a high-toned, structured, sappy and savory Nebbiolo (with 10% Uva Rara and Vespolina) with a big aromatic profile of cranberry, raspberry, black tea, sandalwood and sweet exotic flowers. It has a nice hint of sweetness on the mid-palate, and a savory, bittersweet finish redolent of stone fruits. Firm tannins throughout. Slightly bigger and sweeter, and slightly more tannic, on night two. Outstanding QPR.
