CLENDENEN FAMILY VINEYARDS Nebbiolo 'The Pip' 2007

A fantastic example of how good this varietal can be in California and reminds me of quality Nebbiolo found in Piedmont. The nose is very aromatic with notes of black cherry, earth, strawberries, crushed stone, sweet red fruit, pipe tobacco and fresh cut roses. This possesses elegant characteristics, backed by firm tannins with a solid core of pure fruit and acidity. Very approachable now and should last another 7-10 years.
