Med+ tannins - fine and grippy
Med+ finish
Overall a well made wine - no obvious flaws. Drinkable now b could go another 5-10 years i think. Initial integration of fruit and tannins is underway, secondary characters are quite nice. Good but not magical - not yet.
Personal thoughts - good but don't really like this more muscular style of nebbiolo. Wondering if more bottle age will tone it down? (Probably unlikely)
Edit: other tasters noted red fruit and floral notes. I get the floral part but can't say I'm getting red fruit on this bottle. Weird.2 people found this helpful 2,866 views
