There is something about this wine which screams Angerville, the light red fruit and the mineral footprint makes a stunning palate. Quite playful already from start, the fruit more on the lighter red side - with time the wine puts on more weight and somewhat darker elements of fruit. The alrady great balance improves. Great length. Great acidity, smooth tannins. Start of the mature window ish now, but in no way a shame starting to enjoy these now - from now on preferences are the main choice. I'll revisit every 18-24 months from now on.

Quite open already from start, but a few hours of air is an advantage. Tannins already well integrated, great balanced by the fruit which is a bit linear, elegance over complexity. Very typical Nebbiolo both on nose and palate. Good length.

Shows well now, nose and palate match eachother well, fruit on the darker side, cherries being the dominat. Quite elegant, good length, smooth tannins, nice complexity however this is more about lean elegance than big complexity. Love the balanace, great acidity.
