Decanted for about an hour. Dark ruby in color, nose is rather closed. Red fruit and cherries on the palate. Nice level of tannins are still present after 9 years in my cellar. Nice level of acidity, this wine is drinking quite well right now, probably at it's peak. Paired with pasta, homemade sauce and homemade meatballs. This is a perfect pairing.

Dark red color, decanted 1 hour before dinner, faint aroma of cherry fruit, dried cherry fruit on palate, tannins are certainly in there, fairly long cherry finish. Quite a good wine and considering the good value a very good wine! Good match with short ribs.

With time in the glass (pop and pour into decanter) nose becomes more expressive. Attractive nebbiolo fruit with remaining "chewy" tannins. Good acidity. Drinking very well now, but fine to wait another couple of years too. Very versatile at the table.

Couldn't quite decide if this was mildly corked, but not enough to hide the mature Nebbiolo.

Nice Nebbiolo, but nearing the finish line.
