Alpine Nebbiolo from Valle D'Aosta. Medium bodied and blood red. Creosote, cigar leaf, and red fruits. Fine tannins still working their in-never a polished wine nor should it be, and the way I prefer. Plenty of road left to develop in the glass or cellar.

Like the best langhe nebbiolo. Light on its feet w/ tart cherries and nice mouth filling soft acid. Perfect for a week night.

Really nice example of extreme mountain Nebbiolo. Nose is floral, with ripe yet slightly sour cherry fruit and some clean stony minerality. Lean but intense in the mouth, with the sour cherry flavors taking over and lingering. Very good acids. A wine made to go with food.

Bergamot and dried strawberries. High altitude Nebbiolo at its best.

Earthy aromas mixed with a hint of sour cherry. Very old world on the palate. Lots of earth and acidity. Gentile tannins and just a hint of fruitiness. Short, bright finish.
