$7 at Astor and a staff pick touted as a “solid pizza sipper” — liked it enough to get again and pay better attention — 3 years ago

For $9 from Astor wines, this is a phenomenal bang for your buck every day red. Kind of like the earthiness of the Alea Viva aleatico, slightly fruitier and deeper, but for the price, it’s fantastic value for a tasty red. — 7 years ago
The funk had increased and so did the honey and the wild flowers and salt. All playing a tighter composition with the symphony pulling each act together. #astor — 8 years ago
Classic young Nebbiolo plus a little oak. Really nice acidity and medium– body with pretty mild tannins. Young and fresh but good. From Astor Wines. 05/04/23 — 3 years ago

Like a lot, very drinkable. $13 from astor — 6 years ago
fruity! bitter red fruit, like a pomegranate or a cherry. smelled a little like Brussels sprouts at first-- is that sulfur? smells much better after opening a bit, sorta like a jolly rancher. still pretty bitter (smoky?), not chuggable because of that but having very little tannin makes it go down easy anyway. feels a bit peppery? black pepper sounds right but maybe it's bell peppery. not mind blowing but I'm into it. definitely want to try more zweigelts and get to know them (Astor)

Mellow and delicious. Great expression of tar & roses Nebbiolo, with rounded acids and lush tannins plus cocoa, blackberry, mushroom, graphite, dusty violets, leather. Definitely a “baby Barolo.” From Astor Wines. 04/30/23 — 3 years ago

Nice but not as lush, farmy, and funky as previous vintages. Acids are prominent and lean toward Barbera. Tart raspberry and sour cherry, touch of cola, good minerals. More from the Astor Wines Piedmont sale. 05/06/23 — 3 years ago
