Tasting notes

Deep brick red colour. Nice and quite complex smell of leather, anise, hazelnuts and roses. Good body in the mouth. Tight and tannic structure, although for a nebbiolo not the most structured. Nice fruit, quite evolved. Nice mineral hints. Little hint of tea and tobacco from slightly green tannins (which is good). Good length. A very good Novara-Vercelli that drinks well now. Drink over next 5 years.
