Rustic and zesty. It’s got crunchy wild cherry fruit and loads of wet Novarese gravel, with a little barnyard funk. Lively and crisp in the mouth, with a bit of chalky tannin to give it a little physicality. It was fantastic to wash down pasta bolognese.
UPDATE: On night two, this wine has put on a bit of weight. Upping rating from 8.9 to 9.0.

Wonderful blend of 85% Nebbiolo and 15% Uva Rara. Love these Alto Piemonte cheapies. Beautiful nose of licorice, flowers, deep red berry fruit, lovely minerality when so well made. Beautiful aromas. Palate is so juicy and well balanced with gorgeous purity and freshness. Loads of cherry fruit and wonderful texture. Terrific wine and another summer Nebbiolo sipper.
