Monsecco
Ghemme Nebbiolo Blend
Remarkable that for 24$ one can taste an aged, elegant Old school Nebbiolo. All the tar, burnished leather & rose you need- needs decanting & suspect this can go longer. Under the radar, Rosenthal importer.

Feb 11th, 2021Years ago tried, and this time drank under very different conditions- celebrating & honoring news that some Italian friends in the North (& south) are still safe & sound. Fine, grainy tannins, solidly medium weight, lovely rose hips and red fruits on nose & more red fruits & mushroom risotto in mouth. For about 25$ it’s absolutely stellar & a deal. Mountain Nebbiolo is my wheelhouse. And my family took selfies & sent to our Italian fiends.
