Nose focused but subtle. Sour cherry, licorice, roses, and tar. Classic. Beautifully and gently textured with a persistent finish. Just lovely.

Even at 10 years needs some time to open. The bitter, medicinal cherry quality I dislike in Nebbiolo initially, but mellowed out to sexy red fruit and florals/spice with about an hour in decanter. Slightly corked (wont hold it against it), super value, lighter Nebbiolo delight.

I've now seen the promise land. This wine has everything I'm looking for. In non wine terms it has soul. Every once in a while a wine evokes an emotional response! I may be sitting at Donato's in Redwood City Ca, but my mind is in Valtellina.
