Not sure how to get a higher QPR wine from Langhe. All your favorite Nebbiolo notes, with balance and persistence. Delicious, would buy again.

This breaks the scale in a ratio of purity to price. Opens with an early, damp morning in a greenhouse, followed by a bucket full of freshly chopped strawberry and cherry. The rhythm of cured meat, leather, and anise rides a steady beat of bright acidity that finishes on a crescendo of ample structure. A simply brilliant pairing with seafood gumbo.

Almost too tart initially. The next day was nice and balanced. My main note would be cranberry.

Lovely nose of river breeze, decaying matter and all, and persimmon.

Juicy Nebbiolo showing through, hints of herbs, a touch of citrus with that touch of tannin.

We all know this wine, easy going and highly enjoyable.
