  Very tight on pnp. Day 2 it really started to show its stuff. Leave these alone another 5+ years.

  Light ruby body with orange tinge. There is initially sour cherry on the nose. Over some time in the glass, this initial fruit combines with a medley of savory herbs and floral notes (rosemary, roses) and earth notes of tar and petrichor. Palate is mid+ acid and and mid+ tannin with more cherry and herbal notes (rosemary especially). Finish is short but this is still tightly wound and expect this to evolve with time. Needs at least 5 years to resolve.

  Feels still very young, primary, with balsamic notes in the forefront, but also some nice ripe fruit, with notes of red berries, some flowery notes, mint, also some minerality, there is also notes of pipe tobacco. Medium-full bodied, with medium+ acidity and medium-high tannin. Very good length. A really nice, but still very young wine. (93-94+)

  This has a lot more potential and needs time. I would leave it for at least 5 years. It has nice red Nebbiolo fruity flavors and quite pronounced, yet not overwhelming tannins.

  Rouge grenat translucide, assez pâle.
  Fruits rouges murs au nez, un peu de "pot-pourri".
  Entrée de bouche délicieuse mais tanins asséchants et très présents qui coupent un peu la dégustation à ce stade ci.
  Carafé 5-6h, pas énormément d'évolution (est demeuré assez fermé).
  Beau fruits et belle structure pour le moyen-long terme.
  88-89, pas mal de potentiel vers le haut.
