Mountain nebbiolo with age at this price? Every. Time. No, it's probably not going to go out another 20 years, but who cares when it's so burnished and gentle and open and floral right now. Vastly under rated producer.

Birth year wine. The winemaker said it'd show even better the next day. Coming soon to a Scopa near you.

Valtellina Valentine’s Day tasting class. Paired with a raw-milk Taleggio cheese from Luigi Guffanti. At over 20 years old, this wine still is vibrant and lively!
