Extreem young for a nebiolo. But sparkeling, lots of fruit, and a very modest pack of tanine. Yum. — 11 days ago

I love this wine. I cannot stop myself from pouring another glass. I grudgingly share a taste with my husband because what I really want is to enjoy the entire bottle sola. This wine has everything I want right now: a cheery holiday warmth; a subtle background of spice; and a perfect balance between acid, fruit, and tannin. Why yes, please. I would like another! — 18 days ago

@delectable le strette nas-cetta pasinot Sick density. Some spice. Great fruit. Hint of honey but not an obnoxious amount. Nicely mineral. Nice finish. Think st Peray. Bought from Fass selections. — 17 days ago

Costamagna really overdelivers with this Langhe bottling. All the fruit is from La Morra and Verduno. Very expressive, great acidity, developed fruit and flowery aromatics. — 6 days ago

Very good, long finish
Still not so focused yet(I hope yet), but truly it everything to become a great wine in 5 to 10 years
Needs food now🧐

Fabulous. No wan langhe bianco, this. Shimmering gold, lush palate, tropical fruits and a hint of riesling. Brash, novel, and all the better for it. #vajra — 6 days ago
