A kind of flat floral-honey type of nose and palate, with also some grapefruity astringency on the finish. Okay. If heavier and sweeter, would put me to mind of descriptions of read of Roman Empire wine.

Very nice Langhe Nebbiolo. High alcohol wine but I wouldn't have known. Even after a few hours on its first day, definite violets along with earthy dark fruit and savory character. Second day nice medicinal nuances as well. Not an overblown, "new world" bomb, etc. at all. Quite liked this.

From glass. Cool dark fruit, hints of bramble and peppery spice, firm acidity and mild tannins. Very nice CdR.
