Vintage 1989 - #piemonte #nebbiolo Alive and kicking after 29 years. Earthy taste, minerals and kardemom in smell. A bit severe, will lose this with further cellaring

Light see-through brick color; large nose of freshly-opened bucket of paint spiced up with white flower petals and with the fruit -- ripe red cherries and black currants -- in the background; the taste is delicious, tannic, and long, but it lacks mid-palate punch. This wine obviously needs food, in this case robust semi-hard swiss and french cheeses worked well. Great value wine!
