Kyè Langhe Freisa
Langhe, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
This was great. Not the nobelist variety but this wine is structured and complex. Truly enjoyable. Medium tannin, moderate acidity. Not super aromatic, but really a nice wine by any measure and perhaps the most serious Freisa I've tried.

Pop and pour. Very nice aromatics: plum, soft cocoa, violets....hi-toned. On the palate: good acidity, cocoa, a touch thin on the midpalate, but the grainy tannin kicks in quickly to give a sense of density. More mulberry, plum and soft wood as well. Not bad, but this btl deserves some age. Will wait a while longer for my next one...
