After a few hours open: Looks like Nebbiolo. Menthol on the nose and some peppery spice, pencil shavings a bit. Tart red fruit and serious umami meatiness like iberico ham. Tannins aren’t overpowering, but haven’t had a younger bottle so I guess its the age? I want more of this.

Vibrant acidity, strong vanilla spice, strawberries and cherries. Disappointing lack of structure for a Nebbiolo.

Cherries and spice. Opened up after about 30 minutes in a decanter
