So smooth! Incredibly delicious right now. I’m sure it could age further but I’m happy I uncorked it when I did.

Il Chiosso Gattinara DOCG 2012: Medium-plus bodied. Pronounced acidity. Well defined tannins with an inviting aromatic nose. Notes of red fruits, dried herbs, cigar, menthol, licorice & earth. Long dry finish. This 100% Nebbiolo was one of the other great wines consumed during last week’s fun work dinner (see yesterday’s post). Although not a favorite amongst my peers, for me it was a fresh tasting & well made wine. A great Nebbiolo expression! If you’re looking for a nice alternative to a Barolo or Barbaresco, consider this youthful QPR Nebbiolo from the Alto Piemonte (Northern Piemonte) region. Great day to all! Cheers🍷

Orange almost. This seems like the juice of vines trying to get the little it can out of rocky, thin soil. Not s as whole lot of fruit. Earthy, rocky, some strong tannins. Generally sounds rather unappealing, but there is an appealing quality to this.

Trying something totally different! And what a lovely surprise. Black currants and blackberries not tart at all; super smooth.
