Lessona Nebbiolo 2018

This is a terrific Lessona. Delicate and lacy, but with sneaky flavor intensity. Earthy faded roses and light cherryish fruity scents on the nose. On the palate, it’s got concentrated flavors of crushed-stone-infused barely ripe wild cherry, with zingy acids and super-fine grained tannin. Think Volnay but with Nebbiolo grapes. So good. — 2 months ago

Sizzano Nebbiolo 2018

Such a great value. Youthful nose has beautifully pure ripe cherry (fresh and dried) along with lots of wafty crushed stony gravel scents and a lightly feral note of fur. In the mouth the cherry fruit is intense and accompanied by lots of high-toned stony mineral savoriness, but it is very light on its feet. Ends on a pleasantly and slightly bitter cherry note. Tannins are abundant but very soft. Acids are goods but not so much as to lean-out the fruit. — 7 months ago

Sizzano Red Blend 2015

Really like this mellow Nebbiolo blend. Good with food but stands on its own without having a lingering palate that can happen with with this grape. Could drink a whole bottle after dinner with this, and just might. — 2 years ago
