98 was not a great vintage and why Giacosa bottled the SS as a red label has long been a bit of a mystery. There’s a lot in this wine to like, and no reason to leave it sitting in the cellar. Fully mature, ample bricking, softer but still lively fruit, rich mouthfeel with classic sous bois, a bit of iron, red berry and herbal overlay, and soft maybe a bit overripe tannin. Lovely, but not near Giacosa’s most memorable SSRs. — 3 months ago

Vintage 2019 | Blend of Sangiovese, Cab Sauvignon and Merlot. Mesmerizing smell. Black cherries. Spices. Old Forrest. Hint of gingerbread. Well balanced taste, beautiful acidity, frivolous, elegant. Paired with coda alla vaccinara. — 9 months ago

Deep, earthy, crush, red berries, green herbs and dry dark fruit on the nose. Definite taste of cherry, bright, firm, red cherry, Dusty fruit. Chewy dried herbs on the palette. Lots and lots of sediment.  — 23 days ago

Beautiful wine with homemade shrimp cocktail for Oscar night. Think I’d have some buyer’s remorse at full retail. @Delectable where did all my wines go? My library only shows 78? — 7 months ago

Delicious Chocolate over dried fruit notes with nice dry floral notes. A very nice nebbiolo without face ripping tannins- a good sipper but also would pair well with the lighter side of Italian foods. — 9 months ago
