The Chimp

A young nebbiolo meant to be drunk young. This wine maker doesn't touch it. In the barely and in your glass. Recommended by K&L in Hollywood and we loved it.

Really good flavor. Fruity with mild spice. Cherry, raspberries. Dark purple in color. Drank this bottle at Simeon's restaurant in Ithaca. Tim and I paired with flat iron steak and duck breast. Paired really nicely. Would definitely drink and order this again.

Nice value! A bit of tar, floral, dusty road, cherry and brambly raspberry. Dry but kind of juicy, modern style Nebbiolo. Now, if I only had a dish of pork belly risotto, I'd be a happy camper.
