I think the CT rating of 87 is right on here. I do disagree with our buddy Kermit that this doesn’t need a decent and is ready. Significant, overwhelming tar notes that needed to blow off. Felt like tasting a freshly paved road and about as pleasant as it sounds. More balance with air, but still too much for me and not enough balance to justify a higher score or another purchase.

Medium bright red. Possesses the nose of a young red fresh from the stainless steel tank — no oak — a characteristic I call "fleshiness". Nebbiolo fruit (with some leather) abounds. Plenty of zippy cranberry acidity with low tannins. Not my style of wine but well made. 100% nebbiolo. https://shop.kermitlynch.com/product/detail/19FFO08.html

Bright and fruity, but with enough of that Italian leather tone to balance. terrific value.
