Very light with orange tint. Similar to Roero versions. A little Brett and rose water on nose.

A cheap nebbiolo? Yeah but it doesn't quite pull it off. The nose is disjointed and weird with some volatile components taking over what could have been there. It smells like bad wine. The palate is simple. I am disappointed.

Once this has some air…. Much better.
Again. Now we are rushed.

Very nice, more Amarone like than Nebbiolo in my mind. Nice balance of sweetness and tartness. Grippy tannins.

Typical piedmont terroir. Dried fruit (figs, dates etc). Super smooth tannic structure. Lingered anise/oaky. Lovely

Wine store recommended as good value. Well price ok but wine was thin and not good. If I hadn't read nebbiolo on the label I wouldn't have guessed. Will not buy again.
