It's OK to drink Nebbiolo that is not Barbaresco or Barolo and this is a superb example.

Holy moly this opens up like a beauty after perhaps 90 minutes. What an amazing example of nebbiolo grape.

Really the highlight of the night. Went thru two bottles. Paired very well with the beef.

Lovely wine. Gian-Luca's excellent recommendation at Otto e Mezzo. Medium bodied, classic Nebbiolo nose, vibrant acidity gives the bottle great tension. Tannins quite supple.
