Brighter and lighter than expected for variety. Clean, plenty of fruit still there. The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like fig. It tastes like blackberry and plum. The body is medium. The wine has bright texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

I liked this Californian Nobbiolo when we tasted at the winery this January and bought a couple of bottles only because they wouldn't sell me a case. A well aged wine which is capable of more aging, The nose is floral, raspberry, and cherry. The taste is fresh fruit with acid and long numbing tannin. 91, really nice

Taste was indifferent. Nothing before, nothing after.

Just ok. Hoping for more, but it fell short. Some earthy tones, but also some chlorine overtones.

Not as good as my last bottle. Will be interested to see how my last three are. A bit harsher than I remember.

Aging well. Full bodied with softening tannins.
