This blew me away. Smells and tastes of camp fire/cigar smoke but complimented expertly by tart cherry and luscious tannin. — 6 years ago
Blend of 20% Riservas from Sasella, Grumello, Inferno and Valgela with 20% Sfursat.
Amazingly complex nose full of cherries, lilies, spices, leather, herbs, a whiff of mint. Very youthful and without any evolved aromas. Midweight on the palate with impeccable balance, juicy acidity, a still firm, dusty tannic grip and a finish that goes on and on. Wow! What a wine. — 8 years ago

Inferno showing deeper, richer, smokier tobacco notes. While Sassella showing the more tea like herbal, orange, amaro , chocolate notes — 9 years ago
Crazy value - perfectly aged and ready to go alpine nebbiolo. Compared to Barbaresco, add an extra hit of roses, ease back on the tannins and slip in a touch of balsamic, and you've got something that'll kill it with any roast meat or rich pasta dish. — 10 years ago

Wonderful Valltelina Nebbiolo. With 10 years aging, moving towards a Barolo. Sour dark cherries, smoke, leather, tar, long finish. The southern Alps in a bottle. — 3 years ago
