Barolo Nebbiolo 2016

Won’t you take me to Sappytown!
Pure, sappy, cherry syrup with a bit of chocolate to boost. Dank herbs and liquorice as it airs. Beautiful mouthfeel.
This one could be left alone for years I bet. Proper glassware does this justice.
A cornucopia of browns & reds, autumnal mos def. Strong acid backbone. Nice grip of gentle tannins.
Pow!

Langhe Nebbiolo 2019

Lyle Fass
9.2

This is low key a steal and we (commercial shill) sell so much good Langhe Nebbiolo this would garner more attention. Mesmerizing nose of roses, cherry, tar, spice and all served with such completeness. Palate is an orb of Nebbiolo. Spherical, juicy and with lovely just barely cherry/cranberry sweetness of a great Langhe Nebbiolo. Long finish. So impressive. — 2 years ago

Vignane Barolo Nebbiolo 2016

Wow. Nose blows your socks off on open. Intense lilacs and roses. Cherry flower. As it open up you get this sensual cherry licorice. Lipstick. Oooooooooooh baby. 9.8 nose. Fucking heaven. Cocoa. Leather Hints of tobacco.

Palate is sweet cherry fruit. So elegant. Amazing freshness. Elite. Balance. Pyscho good. Razor sharp cherry licorice crazy freshness.

Magnificent. Utterly magnificent. Tastes so expensive.

Finish has this gorgeous kiss of licorice. Heaven. Just this perfect amalgem of flavors.

This is up there with the big boys this year.

Granè Rosso 2017

A crazy wine. Grenache from Piedmont.

Nose is exultant blackberries. Almost jammy. But some uplifting spice. Herb bouquet. Wow.

Palate is rich. Chocolate. Blackberries. Spice. Bramble.

Crazy chocolate covered blackberries on the finish.

Needs a 30 minute decant.

Yikes. 45 minutes in elite deliciousness. Almost a porty aspect. Damn this is good.

Cursalet Dolcetto di Dogliani 2017

Lyle Fass
9.3

What a freak show of a nose. Gorgeous spice and berry. Super high toned. Grapey and confectionary with a big aromatic spectrum. Big earthiness as well .Palate is gorgeous, sleek and ripe with terrific cutting Dolcetto tannins and dynamic freshness. Terrific grip and concentration. Ripe and juicy tannins that suggest 5-7 more years ahead of this. Terrific wine. — 4 years ago
