A lovely Nebbiolo, full of red fruit, rose petals and wet earth.

Found this on the menu at our neighborhood restaurant. What a steal! On the nose: prune + manure (in the very best way!) Cocoa essence on the palate.

Straight from the cellar, nose is somewhat reticent, if a bit floral. Juicy dark cherries, iron, rosemary, earth and spice/white pepper. Medium acidity with just enough tannic backbone to lengthen the finish.

Very rich but not heavy like a super Tuscan. Excellent for slightly lighter moods but not light as Pinot noirs. Great afternoon wine!
