2005 Claudio Alario Nebbiolo d'Alba Cascinotto, Piedmont (750ml)

"Alario is based in Diano d’Alba, a town best known for its Dolcettos, and also the varietal that seems to be this producer’s strong suit. Medium ruby. This Nebbiolo displays a perfumed nose of flowers and spices. It is soft on the palate, with very sweet, super-ripe fruit, finishing with good structure and length."
