Rossonoah Costa della Sesia Rosso 2024

Made from 50% Nebbiolo, 40% Croatina, and 10% Vespolina. Light bodied with high acidity. This is a tasty red blend from Alto Piemonte. Cherry and strawberry flavors come through initially on the palate, followed by orange zest, slight hints of cinnamon and bay leaf, and a strong mineral backbone. Tasty, persistent finish. The fruit flavors are exuberant and really dominate initially. Over time the other flavors come out a bit more. This is the 2024 vintage. — 3 days ago

Costa della Sesia Spanna Nebbiolo 2020

So loving the nose on this. Zingy red fruit, a little happy barnyard. In the mouth, great acids and crisp, intense flavors. Tannins in check. So much character for $$. — 3 months ago

Uvaggio Coste della Sesia Rosso Nebbiolo Blend 2016

vintage 2016 | 80% nebbiolo, 15% vespolina, 5% croatina. Ten years old and fully alive and kicking. Brownish colour, tertiairy tones in smell. Very good balance, integrated tannines. I loved the bouquet: stinky in the positive way, spices, stewed fruit. A hint of manure. A Piëmonte nebbiolo that I like. Paired with a lasagne. — 10 days ago

Bramaterra Belvedere Nebbiolo Blend 2010

Absolutely delicious. Last had a bit under 4 years ago and the age has served this well, though honestly this could use still more time. Opened for 3 hours and decanted for 1.5, which worked well. Beautiful dark aromatics on the nose. Intensity of fruit on the palate with a long acid driven finish. Tannins are still quite present but with pork chops with a mustardy sauce this paired nicely. Really enjoyed. — 2 months ago

Riserva Bramaterra Nebbiolo 2012

Wow. This has aged magnificently.

Nose: dense. Brooding but still alive. Complex as this opens a lovely florality. Utterly gorgeous 30 minutes in. More pink rose and pretty as it opens.

Palate: dark cherry. Silky. Clean. Spice.

So long.

Along with Gattinara, Bramaterra provides a great alternative to way more expensive nebbiolo wines from Barolo and Barbaresco. — 8 months ago
