Rossonoah Costa della Sesia Rosso Vespolina Blend 2023

Piedmont-y but disjointed and awkward, so young. Its clothes do not fit right. — 13 days ago

At Moore Brothers tasting of Piemonte with Fung and Mary 1/25/25. Unusual blend with fruit from high up by the foothills of Alps but microclimate warm enough for palm trees. A rather rich and round texture and wouldn’t have guessed Nebbiolo. — 2 months ago

Tenuta Monolo

Riserva Bramaterra Nebbiolo Blend 1989

Last of my bottles & a bit sad to see it go- these were soulful wines, demanding not just in managing & extracting their corks but in leaning in to taste what they have to say. After a double decant & cheesecloth/strainer, tasted over 2 days, using a half bottle for day 2. What I loved was the wholeness & evocativeness of the wine, with all the parts having melded; fairly closed on nose but by day 2 old forest floor, rose hips, & black tea leaves; on palate all that & rose petals, dried cherries. The drinking window is closing as previous Delectable users have noted, but what a cool sunset. — 4 months ago

Good question: a previous Delectable review said 60% Nebbiolo / 20% Croatina / 10% Vespolina / 10% Uva Rara but I think that’s the portion of grapes planted in the vineyard, not the wine. But I’ll stick with those proportions!!@Joshua Fisher !bb

Colline Novaresi Croatina Vespolina 2018

Dark purple color (darker than the 2019 Vespolina), lovely blueberry aromas and flavors, some underlying minerality, rich and nicely complex, longish finish, this needs more cellaring. (Apparently this is 90% Croatina, 10% Vespolina, the DOC rules require at least 85% of single varietal for label to identify the principal grape.) — 2 months ago

Cascina Cottionano Bramaterra Nebbiolo Blend 2019

If a wine smelled like cherry cola spilled on a box of Crayola Crayons and it’s a great thing. — 5 months ago

Colline Novaresi Croatina Nebbiolo 2015

Nose: earthy. Blackberry. Bramble.

Palate: fresh. Vibrant. Rustic in a fun way.

An amazing version of what it is.
