Nice medium dark ruby with a distinctive burnt bramble nose. Quite raw and primary on opening, smooths out after a few days open. Now getting dry astringent cherry fruit. More time in the bottle is needed to mellow out the rough edges. Drink with some hefty red meat.

Red/purple fruit and florals with the slightest hint of undergrowth on this nebbiolo. Nice mouth feel throughout. A somewhat exclusive bottle in the US, nicely priced for package.

Vivacious, red fruit (especially raspberry, rhubarb, pomegranate) and rosehips driven bouquet backed by earth and mineral notes. The wine features medium plus acid, restrained tannins, a juicy mouthfeel, and generous finish. Great QPR! 91-92.

Open 2+ hours. Cherry and rose petal with firm tannin and bracing acidity.
Nice with chicken parm.
Nice Wednesday dinner accompaniment. Will soften with time but I Doubt the fruit will hold past 2020.

off-bright red fruit with a good layer of earthiness and a decent amount of tannin to chew through. Solid.
