La Spinona (Pietro Berutti)

Langhe Nebbiolo 2019

Upon opening, a big nose of mentholated cherries and some heat.
Full, settles into cherries, bark, wood.
The palate has some dilute( not unpleasant) leather, cherries, chocolate, some wood, souis bois.
acids are present and there’s a bit of tannins. But overall, this is a puppy( pun intended).
