    Tenuta Rocca 2003 Vigna Sorì Ornati Nebbiolo (Nebbiolo d'Alba)

    A wine where the nose is stunning and the palate non-descript. The nose is really beautiful: ripe fruit, thyme, licorice, mocha and a hint of lavender. Unfortunately it doesn't quite carry through to the palate, where the flavors are so muted that it is a struggle to find them. Little structure and practically no grip, and yet that nose is so haunting.
