A very happy Nebbiolo Monday dear friends!
This time with big 20 year aged last bottle of mine.
👁️ dark ruby brown and watery rim
👃 cherries, minimal marmalade (which makes me not pull a point more), bacon, smoke, with air sweet forest strawberry
👄 full— body; all the 👃 suggests but substantially cooler than the original impression gave, chocolate, typical fine dusty but nearly fully resolved Ceriquio tannins and a good underbrush aftertaste.
Drink now but no rush for probably 10 years
97p

Had to try the sibling GG PN after the spectacular showing!
Last time I wrote on this:
“👃 dark toast, tar, cigar box, strawberry & some cherries
👄 Full- Body; all the 👃 promises, herbal, hazelnut, still some sturdy tannins but real class overall… 95p++”
Again this TN is spot on, but unfortunately the “sturdy tannins” remain but have soften a little; will they ever fully resolve? The rest is all there for greatness… because of that doubt I down grade for now & hope for the next bottle

Have to praise myself for once🤣 wrote the below 3 years ago:
“👃 sour cherries, coffee, black tea, dark toast, bay leaf, oaky vanilla”
“🏁 medium alcohol, high— acidity, long finish; 🤩 this is great already! Phenomenal QPR well below 50€. Give this 2-3 years and it will sing for 15 more. 95p+”
All could not be more smack on!
The 👃 is so sexy with Coca Cola and ☕️, the 👄 way is fresh and the wine could be easily in burgundy top ranges.
