Interesting Nebbiolo from Mexico. Much darker than it's Italian cousins usually are. It still has some of that Nebbiolo character but doesn't quite have that expressive complex nose that I love about Barolos and Barbarescos.

Black cherries and plums. Tannins and a long finish.

So a Nebbiolo from Mexico ? I swear I'm on another planet. Big fruit. Not as acidic. Nice wine..

Well I don't know why I keep hoping that the wine from Mexico's Baja will be as good a "fair" SCali vintage- But this was not the case here. Certainly not even close to Piedmont region! But no one else makes great Tequila so its all even in my books! As I can't stand Grappa!
