Tasting notes

Deep brick-red colour. Tobacco and anise in the nose. Dark berries. Acidic nebbiolo in the mouth.Hints of acidic red berries, tobacco, old woods. But this seems to lack fruit. It does get better with 2-3 hours of air, but this is strangely shy of fruit. Simply lacking concentration? Shows also very low tannins for this grape. Drink up now. This used to be better than this in earlier vintages.
