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 — 5 months ago

Yuuuuuum. Lovely fruit on the palate, with notes of smoke? Tar? Med plus tannins. So worth the price — 9 months ago

Tonight the Grumello was better, but still this was very good. More firm and structured than the Grumello, but lacked the aromatics that I was hoping for! — 3 years ago

Notably firmer and more deeply pitched than the Grumello. Sassella all the way from now on — 5 months ago

Nose: earthy. In a seductive way.

Palate: smoky cherries. Quite good. — 8 months ago

9.1

Beautiful aromatics with light (dried?) dusty cherries, wilted flowers, a hint of rose. Quite light, quite aetheric. So enticing!
Light bodied on the palate and very juicy. A present, fine tannic frame, filled with light cherry, a hint of red fruits, a light herby note. So poised & elegant and really delicious! — 2 years ago

Truncated party notes. Perfumed deep fresh and macerated cherry, spice, crushed stone. Relatively full for a Valtellina. Would benefit from a couple more years but delicious now. — 5 months ago

I’ve had this 2017 a few times now. Opened 3 days ago snd was tight and austere. Now it’s gorgeous. Cherry fruit leather. Hint of black and licorice. Dusty tannins, likely to be at its peak in a couple of years. — 10 months ago

9.1

Dark and brooding, smoky and masculine, yet with lightness and freshness. At 18 years of age this is in its perfect drinking window. A beautiful Nebbiolo that’s not from Barolo or Barbaresco. — 2 years ago
