A typical nebbiolo from the Gattinara region. Sour cherries, dried roses, some cedar and smoke, followed by herbs. Lots of finesse, excellent balance, solid tannins but definitely ready to drink now. A wine for nebbiolo (and pinot noir!) fans.

Nebbiolo in its finest form. Perfumed, dried rose petals and sweet ‘n’ sour cherries with a bit of cinnamon spice all wrapped up in powdery, chalky tannins.

dark ruby color. Nose aromatic, herbal, some cedar. Palate tannic and tart. Would recommend decanting to allow the palate to open but the nose was lovely. 91 pts

Brief note from memory. More spicy than fruit driven. Good weight. Silky mouthfeel and well balanced. Very enjoyable; still a bit closed so decanting recommended.
