Bright fresh, Chardonnay like in body and character. Complex and broad on the palate. Serious but not without freshness. — 2 months ago

Quite light garnet , wide terracotta rim . Aromatic and enticing with sweet ripe strawberry , raspberry , dried spices and fresh herbs, rose , grafite , orange rind; this really does change in the glass . On the palate lovely freshness , pure red fruits , strawberry , raspberry , touch of liquorice , dried spices . Long and detailed , herbal tinged finish , polished quite light tannins . Great now but will probably will age well over the next 5-10 — a month ago

Beautiful wine, cherry, black tea, soil and floral tones, soft and generous for a Valtellina nebbiolo, a bit overshadowed by the more structured Sassella bottling — 3 months ago

9.5

Senses immediately overloaded, in a good way, with a bouquet of lavender tea, smoked cherrywood, tobacco, cedar, vanilla, and as someone here astutely observed, Alpine herbs. Buried underneath that is wild mushroom, wild raspberries, and cherries. Lasting nice finish, though a bit heavy on the alcohol compared to its southern nebbiolo cousins, but given the sforzato Amarone-like production process, this makes senses. One of the finest reds I've had in some time, certainly on par or better than the other nebbiolo I've tasted.

Better yet, I scored this for a steal of a price at a local Total Wine who either thought this was too old or didn't know what they had. — 2 months ago
