cheers - in 35 years, THIS IS THE BEST VALUE WINE I'VE EVER BOUGHT! I was moving some bottles in my cellar today, and found this wine I paid $11.39 cents for at Binny's years ago. I figured it would have spoiled and couldn't find online any purchases or tasting notes since 2015. 40% Barbera, 40% Nebbiolo, and 20% Merlot; this wine from Piedmont has matured into a perfectly balanced red. I only wish everyone could taste this!!!
Very good pairing with pasta and olives in a rustic tomato sauce. Still a core of fruit and some acidity hanging around. Definitely peaking though. One more bottle to go.

had this 2 years ago and it was spectacular, hope the last bottle follows suit,
may try it soon, but I don't think any rush is necessary.

Nice intense nose. Red fruits, tar, leather. Well balanced. Unmistakably Italian. Well made wine and good value.
