WineSaint
Elegant and restrained, with classic Nebbiolo structure wrapped in surprisingly approachable tannins. The wine shows excellent balance between power and finesse, suggesting it will develop gracefully without the harsh austerity of more rigid expressions. Built for the long haul but should become drinking well by 2017-2018.
