Lovely, lifted nose that initially led with bergamot and petit grain before unveiling some dark cherry, almond paste, fennel & mint. Ropey and present tannin profile but never overt and work well with the wine. Length is good. Worth a look at with some years under the belt

I thought this was the weakest of the Nebb during the night. Having said that, it was pure and balanced. Just lacking the stuffing of the others around it. Would drink it anyday!
NB: This is a declassified Barbaresco Straderi because Olek was in trouble with cash flow while finishing the construction of the new cellar; he decided to release this gem one year earlier! Long maceration in cement, aged in a large slavonian botte.
