A little anise on the nose. Great balance, abundant but soft tannins.

CVed 3/16/17 Nebbiolo comp. High tone cherry notes on nose though still a bit closed. Acidic and firm on palate with tannins and good body with good length. Opened 11/21/17. Drinking very well. Cherry notes and elegance and liveliness. Upping 1 point to 9.2.

Dark cherry & balsamico. Power & grace working together. Ovello always delivers.

Pretty but not overwhelming. My dining companion liked this a lot more than I did, think my palate was just off. Violets and licorice on the nose and great acidity.

Has a lot of underlying potential but alcohol seems way too present at the moment. Hoping it integrates better over the next few yeads
