WineSaint
Dark cherry and licorice pour from the glass with compelling intensity. The palate shows remarkable grace. Feathery tannins and ethereal lift that defines great Nebbiolo at its peak. Yet there's a sense of fragility here, the fruit beginning to recede while structure remains prominent. Drink now while the perfume holds.
