  March 24, 2021 - Russk. Bought in Stowe at Dedalus. $22. Lovely feminine easy drinking Nebbiolo. Get more if poosble.
  
  From. " Alto Piemonte ... at the foot of the famous alpine mountain, Monte Rosa, precipitation is significantly higher [compared to the Langhe] it’s colder, and the growing season longer. The soils are nearly the complete opposite too. The Langhe is white limestone soil and soft bedrock, which leads to more power, and the Alto Piemonte is more elegant and perhaps more minerally (and metallic in a refreshingly delicious way) and is mostly igneous-derived soils, like porphyry, volcanic sands, and in the case of this wine, glacial moraines, alluvial sands and cobbles derived from what appears to be granite. These differences bring much more elegance to the Nebbiolos from the north. This organic wine from the Ioppas is supremely elegant and its time spent exclusively in stainless steel accentuates its natural and bright personality."

  December 22, 2020 - Baking spices, white pepper, and red fruit (pomegranate). It’s tasty. Nice chilled too. Holds up well over a couple of days.

  June 10, 2020 - Transparent red. Clean, floral and delicious Nebbiolo aromas. Light weighted, tender and delicate, with clean fruit and good acidity. A lovely Nebbiolo for the price.

  Farge, klar dyp rød. Lukt, litt lær, krydder og bær.
  
  Smak. Syrlig og fast. Kjenner noe lær og krydder. God lengde. Ørlite tørr i avslutningen.
