What to Expect

Nebbiolo is a fickle grape famed as much for its pale appearance as for its tannic character and produces some of the most perfumed and richly flavored wines. Though generally only medium-bodied, the wines possess rose and anise scented aromatics and deep flavors of cherry, orange peel and subtle green herb tones.

Completely unusual nose. Reticent at first with a sandy, dried herbal edge to the roasted deep cherry in alcohol/cherry confiture tone, with background notes of candy apples. Gains a lot of complexity with wooly and meaty flesh notes with a roast edge to it, yet remaining fresh and clean. This borders on profound with time. Rigid and erect on entry yet deceptively deep with full flavors of light red berries and airy spice tones that recall caraway seeds and dried herbs de Provence. Wonderfully precise structure with stemmy tannins that keep this fresh and crisp, very well integrated acidity. read more...

Grainy nose that kicks in with cherries after a moment. Reminds me a lot of cherry marinated tobacco from a hookah. Meaty grainy flavor with a steady and strong spicy din that slowly dies down. Really nice.

Shy, but typical nebbiolo nose - tar, but less pungent than many. Very fruity - cherry, not as acidic as many. Firm tannins. Very nice. A good lighter, fruitier Nebbiolo than many - nice.

Pretty fun nose! But hot -- it's simultaneously syrupy (thinking molasses) with a good earthiness and some fungal qualities. I spent a good long time with this wine under my nose, just enjoying. Palate is soft at first, but in the mouth it crescendos, culminating in an alcoholic blast of spice and deep black fruit.
