Now a really stunning Nebbiolo. Picked up a case at auction for a steal. Looking forward to enjoying over the next several years.

Extremely good value from 2010. Classic nose of truffles and roses.

Pure Nebbiolo flavors of ink and tar and forest floor. Rich tannins slink along atop a silky finish. 12.5% alcohol makes it way too easy to drink.

Tasted five times its age - in a good way. With Beek at Terroir.

Outstanding #langhenebbiolo, it's definitely a #babybarolo #piedmontesewines with those pronounced tannins that you love to taste in a Barolo. A touch of #brett but minuscule. Perfect concentration and tension. Will age well drink 2018-2028

Bought at The Sourcing Table. Lovely, smooth, dry and very slightly smoky red. Medium to light body, with bright fruit up front and a long, dry finish
