Nose of strong floral and light tar. Palate of dark cherries and light cherries, an element of earth, good acidity and moderate tannins. Takes a good 1.5 hrs to really start showing.

Same as the last two bottles (see notes), just holding steady as a great version of mountain nebbiolo. And no sign of age, so I'm moving it out another year.

Still drinking gorgeously. Nose of tar and truffle and floral. Palate of dark cherries, earthy mushrooms, integrated firm acidity and moderate tannins. A great drink.

Another lovely bottle of this vintage. The nose is classic mountain nebbiolo -- of huge and serious truffle and tar and roses. The palate is dark cherries and mushrooms with juicy acidity and moderate tannins that extend the finish.

Another, and last, wonderful bottle from this vintage. The same notes apply as my May tasting. A great mountain nebbiolo.
