The Etichetta Bianca comes from 2.5ha of trellised Nebbiolo vines, aged for 30 months in old barrel and a further 6 in bottle before release. This vintage shows an iron-tinged, politely savory andamp; herbaceous side meshed with buoyant, juicy red fruits and a fine thread of acidity. There will be no Etichetta Nera released for the vintage, so all the production went into this wine. As with many of our favorite iterations over the years, the wine is already incredibly charming but is poised to continue to dazzle as it unfolds over the years in the cellar.

Still a baby. Still glorious. There is a reason this wine blows me away every single time. Needs pasta.

Dried out and oxidized. Either bad storage or a faulty closure. But some pretty aromatics on day two, under the dead underbrush.

We had this at diner at Union Square Cafe last week. Crushed flowers, mint, dark fruits, leather, tobacco. Medium bodied, elegant, full of fruit and deceivingly accessible. No rush. Recommended.

First bottle was badly corked and this second bottle is lovely. Berries, roses, and leather. Delicate and persistent.

Silky Nebbiolo with violet, plums and black cherry notes. Not much earth in the wine, more fruit than soil. Very drinkable, but not at this price point.
