Super intriguing aroma... it took me a few minutes to even comprehend what was wafting from the glass... tangy, zesty, spicy... ORANGES. This wine smells like fresh squeezed juice with a ton of Italian herbs backing up the zest. The palate has some powerful tannins balanced against bright acid. Tremendous.

Nov 21st, 2015Great light upfront with hints of chocolate. This is not bold, classic Nebbiolo but pares well with Italian food. Can beat restaurant prices $56, probably $25 retail.
