  Drank it on day two at Alter Ego Tokyo by the glass. Tar, dried flowers, rose petals, smoked fruit, and tobacco on the nose and palate. Palate was seamless with subtle tension with a long finish. On day 2, it was drinking beautifully. 92-93

  Took a few hours to wake up in the decanter, but was stunning when it did.
  
  Classic Nebbiolo - Very aromatic. Ripe cherry, licorice, tea, earthy, and dried roses on the palate. Great complexity.
  
  Still a baby, but this one has a bright future if this bottle is any indication.

  Nose of strawberry, dried flowers, toasted vanilla; nice balanced drying delicate tart tannins. Very nice and enjoyable wine. Not dramatic however. A bit pricey for this enjoyment.

  Perhaps a bit young, but not sure how it might evolve. Nice acid; a bit of an edge. Subtle nose of dark cherry, and flowers. Full mouth feel, round finish. A bit pricey for my enjoyment. I would decant if I open another.

  Decanted and served. On the young and wound up side of things. Good fruit though and not sharp or aggressive, just not there yet and this easily needs another 5-10years to develop a complex side and get to its full stride. Shame to open it young. 90 for now but really no point to rate
