  Slow-oxed for 9 hours upon opening serving into Zalto Burgundy glass (“Root” day): Pale garnet to the eyes.
  
  Fruits that is much stronger than other tasted but diffused in a nice way.
  
  Very nicely structured without too much oak.
  
  94 points easy.
  
  Second round: red dates, very much remained powerful.
  
  Third round: smoke, dried leaves. Very much secondary notes.

  Nose had very beautiful red fruit, flowers and prunes. Palate had some tart fruit. The mid palate and aftertaste were lacking the stuffing and finesse for a san lorenzo.

  Fully mature, on the nose classic aromas of tar, liquorice, dry roses, truffle and decomposing leafs.Initially earthy tones were casting doubt on this but in about 30 minutes depth of aroma got more and more complex. Palate was more lively and kept on improving.Great example of mature nebbiolo.

  Muted nose, but gorgeous plate. Leather, dried fruits and a long finish. Drink now.
