Tasting notes

Red colour. Light browning. Typical nebbiolo in the nose with hints of tar and tobacco. Some high notes of sweet anise. Fullbodied, young and structured Valtellina-wine in the mouth. Again grape-typical. Lots of tar in the fruit. Acidic and tight structure. Shows it's tannins in the finish. Would be best to leave in the cellar another 4-5 years. Very good wine.
