Rudolph Schmidt Likes this wine:
March 14, 2024 - Enjoyed from a magnum, decanted two hours and was still opening in the glass.
Blackberry, tobacco, violets, asphalt, forest floor, hint of menthol, baking spice. -

October 19, 2022 - Dark hazy red in color with lightening around the edges. After about 3 h this was superb, showing expressive dark florals, black cherries/plums, tar, graphite and tobacco. Ample and full-bodied in the mouth showing structured and savory dark red fruits, medium acidity and fine-grained tannins with a long floral finish. Great showing.

May 29, 2022 - Decanted for 2 hours before tasting over several more. This was delicious. Brick garnet color. Nose seems to indicate the modern style of the wine with some oak derived notes but still quite expressively Nebbiolo. Rose petals, earthy mushroom, truffle and cherry abound. Tannin is mostly integrated but there is still some structure there. Long finish. Great with grilled pork tenderloin.
