Mexican- Game and dark berries. Light enough on its feet so that it's not chewy. Garrigue. Surprising and enjoyable

It certainly doesn't taste like Nebbiolo from anywhere I've enjoyed. Definitely, not from Italy. It's soft silky blackberries, dark cherries, dark raspberries, followed by a strong taste of smoked BBQ'ed meats. You can also smell it. It reminds me of the Norton grape wine I had from Mz...only better. There is also a strange funky earthiness with gripping minerality on the finish and oddly a Burgundian style to its making. Not surprising as I understand the Winemaker is from there. I can't recommend this wine but it certainly is fun to try and even something there's engaging about it.

Natty Nebbiolo made in Mexico by a Burgundian living in Chile. Not getting any Nebbiolo character but I'm not complaining either.

Love the Guarilihue white from Chile but can't say I love this. Bit too earthy.

Easy drinking natural nebbiolo (?) from Baja California. Reminds me of Jura
