Nice black cherry on the nose, good tannin, fruit forward, earthy. Enjoyed @9000 ft with my love , over an al fresco dinner of cheese and garlic ravioli with a shiitake mushroom marinara sauce.

Cherry scents on the nose with a slight gamey quality. Almost a "barnyard" or hay scent. Tannic mouthfeel, fruit forward, but ending in that slight gaminess on the back of the tongue. Interesting with a lot going on!

May 20th, 2016Part of Nebbiolo's deception is its ruby red color. The flavors or tar, violets, and red fruit are unmistakable. When some of your pals are switching to party whites a man must keep pounding the Reds. This is a great wine at almost QPR levels. The velvety body matches the finish which lingers for half a minute

Big, bold, tannic, traditionally structured Nebbiolo. Needs more time. Vanilla, cranberries, a little tobacco. Has notes of a Bordeaux merlot. At this point alcohol too hot on the nose.
