Raspberries and black tea. Still heavily tannic. Wished I had more to see how it develops. Still delicious with pan seared duck breast over wild mushroom risotto.

Disappointing and disjointed, even after long decant. Slightly better on day two. If you have one, I recommend letting it sit for at least another decade, and maybe some miracle will happen and turn it into a decent wine. But right now, it ain't.

I never get to drink enough old Nebbiolo. 19 yrs. Smooth bergamot tannis and sharp acid. Iron and blood. Leather and stewed fruit. 1.5L showing well.
