Davide Carlone Boca Nebbiolo Blend 2011

Tom Casagrande

Lots of old mahogany furniture and macerated cherry on the nose. Still deep fruit on the nose, tannins resolving, it’s got a nice amalgamation of the transparency of Nebbiolo and the wininess and bluntness of the other grapes blended with it (Bonarda, Vespolina).

Medium intensity nose features macerated cherries, spice, and gravel. Tight and tannic in the mouth, very youthful, but still enjoyable with a meal. Better in 5.

Chris McClellan

Sour red cherries, but fruit still ever present, back tea, high tannins, med plus acid. Perfect last nite with lasagna and an outdoor fire..finished the bottle myself! Good price too..

Tom Casagrande

Rustic Nebbiolo (Spanna in the Novarese area). Intense nose has a bit of VA, loads of fresh-turned gravel, a little bit of barnyard, all to go with deep macerated cherry fruit. Intensely flavored, with loads of puckery (but not harsh) cheek-coating tannin. Very rustic and long.

Doctor No

Lovely and classic nose. Palate is vibrant but fiercely tannic and without a lot of depth.

Angelo Casagrande

Earthy, little funky with some menthol in nose. Big, round, full mouth with some tannic backlash on the finish. I expected this to be a lighter neb, but it's not. Really enjoying it.

Dusty tannic medium-full #garagiste

Brandon Tomes

Tannic wine that has a smooth finish. Underwhelming taste quickly flees the pallette.
