Reviews

"Pale and totally transparent. Smells of woodland strawberries growing in dappled light. Tastes so pure – I can almost feel the transparency of colour on my tongue. Delicate strawberry, with the shining clarity of a dew drop caught by sunrise on a spider web, reflecting red, refracting light. Exquisitely fresh and barely a breath of tannins, although on the finish you can feel a subtle lick-of-rusty-iron, a reminder that this is, after all, Nebbiolo. It may very well have a longer drinking window than I have suggested, but the joy of it is that you can drink it now."
