A weekday in Diessenhofen, pairing with ravioli from globus. Medium ruby color. Red cherries, roses, touch of smoke, white pepper, mushrooms on the nose. Med+ acidity, med body, med alcohol, med flavor intensity, dry tannins and med finish. Smoky, balanced acidity, nice crunchy cherries, lingering salinity, quite likeable wine and what I am looking for in a Nebbiolo from the region.

This is from a magnum 2012. In Megève, paired with pintade. Medium purple color. Beautiful matured fruit on the nose, sous bois, mushroom, wet forest floor. Med acidity, med body, med alcohol, med flavor intensity, dry tannins and med finish. Very refined mouth, nicely balanced, touch of greenness and cream, tertiary notes with mushroom, wet forest floor, roses, truffles. Perfectly drinking now.
