Elegant Nebbiolo with great intensity. Extremely aromatic with huge floral and sweet spice components. Crunchy red fruits, blood orange and mint filling out the mid palate. Searing acidity and quite grippy tannins, definitely a mineral quality to the finish and overall mouthfeel. A serious Barbaresco for less than $30 is always high on my list.

Rich ripe nose, full of savory herbs, sweet mushroom, and fresh tar, but shows its youth on the palate--ripping tannin. Nothing like young Nebbiolo first thing in the morning

Classically styled. A bit too soon to drink, yet highly enjoyable in its youth.

Thanksgiving wine #3
Pesquero of Paitin never disappoints! Had this with Prime Rib - fabulous pairing. Very rich, aromatic wine. Herbal notes and dark fruit.

I wish it were colder right now (currently 63 ° in Charlotte) because this is warming, bright and candy-apple red fruit. Soft tannins, great length.

Loads of interesting Asian spice, but could use a little more fruit to balance it out.
