Another stunning Carema from this standout estate. Nose is mesmerizing. Stunning florals with loads of pink and red roses. Some tar, earth and spice but so ephemeral and elegant. Palate is rich, ripe and substantial With gorgeous dark cherry fruit and ripe, velvety tannins. Fresh and juicy with insane finesse. Long finish and much more to say as it airs. Wow the nose on day 2 is insane. Deep deep licorice. Musk and spice. Palate is juicy, structured and comes across as very dry but not out of balance. This is like old school Bordeaux structure. The cherry flower on the nose is remarkable. — a month ago

100% Nebbiolo grown on terraces at the entry of the Aosta. Alley in Alto Piemonte.
Fermented & aged in acacia.
A crunchy, juicy light face of Nebbiolo. Lots of fresh red fruit, a bit of cherry and bit of flowery. Let’s, some crushed rock, freshly baked bread. Fairly light, very joyful, very enticing.
On the palate this is equally light & fresh. Just a bit of tanin, juicy fruity acidity and amazing purity. Light yet with depth and an edge. A joy to sip!
Cheap as chips for this level of quality & joy. — 2 years ago

Wow. What a great wine.

Nose is gorgeous white flowers.

Palate is so clean and mineral. Great thrust. Some linear richness. Great density.

Very good. — 4 years ago
