- We switched to older wines with this flight and this offered a pretty impressive package with it's rich nose full of earth, tea, veal stock, cold coffee, light fresh funghi note all turning very beefy and bloody with air and throwing in one stinky sock adding complexity. Fairly round and rich in the mouth with a block feel to the meaty, dark fruits. Still some lingering tannins that drive the savory, espresso crema finish. Not this most typical Nebbiolo but at peak and holding well. 2007-2017
