Popped and poured; consumed over a three hour period. No formal notes. The 2015 Ferrando “Etichetta Bianca” pours a striking transparent garnet moving towards an iron oxide rim. It almost looks advanced…but Nebbiolo has a tendency to do that. On the nose, a lovely mix of red and black fruits, both ripe and desiccated. There is also tar, dried roses and leather and dried spices. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with significant structure. Confirming the notes on the nose. The warmth of 2015 shines through with the ripeness of of the fruits nearly coming across a bit stewed (but not overblown). It’s complex and already starting to show some secondary characteristics. Drink now through 2035.

The 2015 Carema Etichetta Bianca is such a gorgeous wine. Dried cherry, tobacco, licorice, spice, mint and dried flowers give the 2015 striking aromatic openness, but there is plenty of mineral-drenched tannic backbone that gives this wine its distinctive personality. Medium in body, taut and full of character, the 2015 hits all the right notes. It should also start drinking relatively early and age effortlessly for many years.

Silky, Burgundian… seems to have little or no oak( I believe they use the traditional large slovinian vessels). Really quite good.

Super pretty and floral. Still overwhelmingly tannic so give a long decant or hold. Excellent wine though.

Quite light in color. Nose is floral and assertive. Palate driven by sharply defined red fruits, spice and flowers. Tannins are prominent.This stuff is distinguished by the focus and clarity. High altitude Nebbiolo, small area and crystalline wine making. Seek out. 9.4
