Region: Piedmont, Italy

Varietal: 100% Nebbiolo

Tasting Notes: Deep dark red core with black tinged edges and a dark red hue. Pronounced red cherry aromatics tinged with the merest hint of rose petals intermingle with earth, dried herbs, subtle leather and spicy tobacco scents. Delicious ripe cherry and red raspberry fruits are backed by stern, muscular tannins which impart some strong grip to the finish. Elements of dried herbs, light tobacco, earthy graphite like characters and spice are also present. Bright focused acidity gives the wine an energetic feel. Long austere finish.
