100% Nebbiolo, from the Lombardy region. Got aromas of plum, cherries, and hazelnut. Dry red wine, full bodied, and well balanced, really long finish. The acid and tannins on this wine are so trippy, and for how they process this: letting the grapes dry out has a heavier alcohol amount but still isn't sweet (like what could typically happen with he sugars). You are left with hazelnut at the end. Quite fun wine, got that "pricey vintage wine" feel but still at a great price point.

Cherry and leather on the nose, medium body with smooth texture and lingering leathery notes. Really opens up slowly and pairs excellently with food.

An excellent light, dry Italian red. Soft tannins make for a full mouth feel.

Decanted 1 hour, barnyard and sweet sugary aroma, sour cherry with soft tannins. Kind of stopped at mid palate but enjoyable nonetheless.
