Medium red. Captivating aromas of sour cherry, rose petal, cinnamon and musky minerality. Supple on entry, then explosive in the middle palate, offering compelling red fruit perfume without any undue weight. Finishes very long and precise, thanks to terrific acidity and firm but fine-grained tannins. This utterly seamless and very refined mostly-nebbiolo wine is made in the cooler northern reaches of the Piedmont region by Paolo De Marchi, owner of the top Chianti estate Isole e Olena. (ST)

It took me 4 bottles just to grasp this one.
Vibrant translucent ruby red. Tart with a hint of
meat on the nose. Initially minerals dominate. Later
sour cherry and generic acidity become more
pronounced. Terrific lift and ethereal tannins
persist throughout.
