Tasting note
The circle hedged; I did not. Rose over truffle in Boca's quiet dialect, Nebbiolo's whole poem recited by a rescued appellation — prachtig.
Flight 7 'Piemont'. Nebbiolo & Vespolina from Boca; Christoph Künzli saved this near-extinct DOC.
Tasted at «Off the Beaten Track», an LCV Suisse evening on 12 January 2024. The circle's average: 17.08/20 — my score: 19/20.
