  • Beautifully matured and softened. Lovely old leather, tar, black cherries, menthol.

  • This last bottle was the tops. Nose was very much like our 2017 bottle -- tar and smoke was big. Palate was deep nebbiolo fruit, earth, mushrooms, still significant acidity, and moderate tannins at the end. A gem.

  • Not as spectacular as the last bottle last year. Still a lovely bottle of Produttori, but the nose was more muted, and the palate has lost some of its brightness. Still full of sumptuous nebbiolo fruit. So, unless this was a one-off, the wine may be peaking. I'll see with the next bottle.

  • This has really soared since 2015. Nose is bigger than ever, with tar and smoke and dark cherries. And I have to quote from earlier: "Palate is bright with nebbiolo fruit, yet there is a darkness and earthiness which gives it depth. The acidity is part of that brightness along with a bit of spice."
    Eventually tannins kick in and this wine just kicks ass, all along the flavor profile. I'm pushing the ideal drink by date back to 2018 because it is NOT over any peak at this point. Just keeps on giving.

  • Dark cherry and smoke on the nose. Palate is bright with nebbiolo fruit, yet there is a darkness and earthiness which gives it depth. The acidity is part of that brightness along with a bit of spice. More significant tannins that previous bottles -- this has good structure and long legs, so not nearly at or over its peak.
