A complex effort, fruit from 10 vineyards across the appellation, no other winery does that with Nebbiolo, watercolor design on label portrays the shape of these vineyard sites. Ruby with rich bouquet of fruit, spices, leather, and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of cherry and ripe raspberry with notes of cinnamon and tobacco. Long finish, nice balance with fine dusty tannins ending with fruit and smoky earthy notes. Enjoyable, will get better!

Dec 31st, 2021Cherry blossoms incarnate. Nothing more.
Characteristic Nebbiolo tint. Crushed roses, nice acidity, dry, and not super tannic, just enough. Love the gulpability here. Not amazing, not basic, just level.

Feb 11th, 2021Tannic and dry, with raspberry, dried flowers, and a hint of leather on the nose. Almost like a mid-weight Bordeaux. A good wine, but not quite great. The rare affordable Barolo, though.
