Even for a 2008 Cali Nebbiolo, this still has that classic aroma of ‘tar and roses’ with notes of leather, wood smoke, mushrooms and maybe even some caramel/coffee.

This cowboy walks into the bar smelling of tobacco and leather. Throws you a mouthful of cedar, black licorice, black cherry, and pepper. He's stocky, but doesn't throw his weight around. Slick tannins make him a tantalizing date for a dusty night.
