Really lovely. More lifted, delicate, and lacy than the 2010. Terrific energy. 90% Nebbiolo, 10% Vespolina

70% Nebbiolo, 20% Vespolina, 10% Croatina... A great pick from Guido for steak and "claret" night. If you ever need awesome Italian wine, while in San Francisco, he is the man to see! Great structure, proper tannins, and an excellent finish!

From Lessona. Very Northern. Non-intrusive winemaking, so unique.

The right amount of fruit, dry, bright. Delicious with a pasta and artichoke.

Just popped the '12 vintage and it's stellar right out the gate. Spice box aromas of clove and kola nut, red and purple flowers, dried cranberries and fresh cherries. Very seductive. Soft and tart on the palate. 100% Nebbiolo, but a fraction of the tannin typical of a Barolo or Barbaresco of the same age.
