Sour red cherry, some earth, like the nose. Red fruit, not overly complex but good balance.

Not for me. I love Nebbiolo and have drank many great ones over the years but this isn’t anywhere near great or even really good for that matter. Decanting helped and it was better with food but no real body despite the dark, brick red color and mouthfeel was little more than water. In fact, I opened a second bottle just in case and it was just as mediocre. Travaglini is normally a decent lower end Nebbiolo but understand why so many online ratings are so low. Hopefully the 2006 is better.
