That was a terrific post, Ant, and a great recap of the night's events! It was a great time!
2003 Nebbiolo Vecchio Reserve
The first barrel-aged Nebbiolo in the U.S. Our Nebbiolo Vecchio is aged in predominantly French oak barrels for more than 24 months. Offering cedar, cherry, leather, spice and tobacco nuances. Limited to less than 500 cases.
Only the best for my hometown, boys. BTW... where is Vince in the picture? Is he sleeping under the table again? I thought we were past that...
Vince couldn't make it. I think he was breast feeding or something.
