Powerful tannins. Leather, rose, red berry, clay. Opens up well after lengthy decanting.

Good fruit, little extra tannins on this youthful nebbiolo. Paired well with mixed mushroom and truffle oil pizza.

Nothing but yeast! Zero fruit, zero complexity or depth. A complete fail! All “natural” isn’t always the way to go! I think this bottle didn’t make the US in good health, but it was not heat damage, so I blame it on it being natural, and something went wrong in bottling it maybe.

Ripe berry and tobacco on the nose; raspberry, vanilla, light tanins. Full nose but easy drinking. Would drink again

Not my favorite Nebbiolo. Roero we had at Terroni was better. Of all the Langhe we've had lately this is my least favorite. Sharp finish about what I used to not like about wine.
