Geez this is a decent little drop! Red roses great minerality & no nonsense acid profile. Not for the modernists. Loving this thanks @biondivino wine boutique

Opened up nicely, with tar and lifted floral notes.

Tobacco, tea leaf, cassis and some greenness on the nose continue through to the palate. The green (early picking?) is a bit too much and I'm not sure will disappear over time. Try to drink over the next 6-7 years (2021-2022).

Round, balanced, finesse-driven, spice box and glossy red tones. Lovely tannins for such a youthful Nebbiolo. Good life ahead of it.

Lifted red floral aroma, sour raspberry, cherry cola, spicy(white pepper) with a hint of mushroom. Bright and grippy, definitely a food wine. Nice tannin. Great length on the finish.
