  nice level in the bottle.
  The colour is young enough and healthy. Instant nose is actually very pleasant, underwood, spices, with some fresh fruit timidly in the background. Tannic structure is well polished, present but not invasive. So fare a well conserved and seducive wine. The less pleasant part of the experience comes up with the late arrival of a massive acidity, not integrated and well beyond the usual (high) standard of nebbiolo. Actually, it is an aggressive acidity too (malic acid maybe?) This completely downgrades the experience that ends up being frustrating at best. So a wine to enjoy for its perfume mostly... same conclusion touching the Lessona 1985 from the same producer (and maybe only left back then?)

  Quick notes from a couple of celebrations; 6/24/2023-6/25/2023: My contribution. Love such wines that surpass all expectations. Some light spice, gentle and mellow tannins with the fruit still simmering in the background. So well-balanced, the acidity probably kept this alive for so long.
