Close out the night in a high note. The 96 has plenty of gas in the tank. Let it decant for an hour and really hit it stride on the last few sips- crap! Still excellent with tar, dark fruit, smoked meat- I know crazy but a hint of that - light acidity, well balanced. ... dear diary I wish I had more bottles... so does my wife. Cheers!

Monolithic, dark-fruited and lacking prettiness, detail and freshness. Hours of air did not help. Opposite of everything I like in Nebbiolo.
