  Comprehensive Tenuta delle Terre Nere (Chicago, IL): A bit of herbal/licorice thing going on here, with nice minerality and brightness, especially for the bigger vintage. Lighter than the Don Peppino and more approachable now. Surprisingly light but very enjoyable and approachable.

  Smells like licorice and lava and herbs.. tastes like watermelon and smoke and lava stone and the barest hint of mint.. medium body with present but balanced acidity.. I love these Nerellos when they're done well.. really good wine

  Glorious bouquet of blackberries, peppery notes and some menthol as well as rose petals. Delicate and light in color this is a full throttle wine with thirst quenching acidity and young but refined tannins. Overall a great balance strikes you.
  Somehow similar to its north western Nebbiolo soulmates but different and warmer at the same time. Looking at the level of quality this is quite a value and will develop for at least another decade.

  Det är ett väldigt ungt vin fortfarande. Röda bär och en strävhet som överträffar allt jag testat från Etna. Aningen sluten - jag både gissar och hoppas på en större komplexitet med ålder. Medium+ finish och charktoner i avslutningen. Mycket bra.
