A touch heavy on oak and acid, but at $12.99 this is a steal: it is terroir driven, with tart red fruit, mushrooms, and dusty earth, no perceptible RS. — a month ago

Beautiful evolution in the glass. Still very much alive and kicking. 2003 was hot but this has mellowed. Dried fruits, leather, garrigue, round and lush with perhaps just a bit too much acid, but quite good with a finish that keeps going. — a month ago

With 2 hours decant this is drinking beautifully now. Blackberries, blackcurrant, blueberry - still vibrant and fresh - dust, smoke, flowers, pepper and garrigue. Long finish, silky tannins. 👍 — 10 days ago

This was my first time trying a wine from Valtellina and I am impressed. It’s Nebbiolo but so different from the wines of the Langhe. Very pale brick red, nose of dried red fruit (cherry), rose petals, earth/mushroom and some savory notes. On the palate more red fruit but still subtle, with an herbal almost medicinal vibe, searing acidity and delicate well integrated tannins. This is meant to drink young but could almost certainly age for a few years. — 24 days ago

Apple, pear, peach pit, some pineapple, blossoms. Full body, no taste of oak, perhaps aged on lees. Rich with a good finish. — 2 months ago
