A few years on from the last bottle. Spicy nose, not getting a ton of fruit, some deep black cherry. But good earthy tones and structure. Solid robust dark Nebbiolo. Not completely certain of my own notes 3 yrs ago, has my taste changed or is it how the wine is aging? Or what I just ate with it?

Classic Noob mistake by me trying to drink this after only one hour in decanter, around hour two the earthy red fruits started to pop, but still remained a little tight, will revisit in another few years...

Wow. This has it all developing. Very straightforward and angular with strong tannins and acidity, but a lot of complexity and fragrance. I think this is good now but going to be really good in a few years.
