July 6, 2015 - Nebbiolo Lunch with Jeremy Parzen (I Trulli, NYC): [Decanted at 11am.] Classic nose of licorice, dried cherries, and fruit compote. Complex in the mouth with black spice on the long finish. This is a beauty. Full of life still.

July 6, 2015 - This was simply stunning. Slight bricking but for the most part a beautiful clear and transparent red hue that emitted the essence of the Piedmontese terroir on the nose. A round and delicious wine that showed no signs of decline.
