Paolo Scavino Langhe Nebbiolo, 2017

Some on Cellar Tracker dubbed this as a wine for early drinking. But this bottle was clearly better on the second night, which needs me to think that it may have at least a year or two of development to come.

Medium deep ruby with some Nebbiolo orangeish tones. Nebbiolo nose of dark cherries, rose petals and a hint of cloves--more forthcoming on the second night. Still some firm tannins even on the second night and plenty of acidity. At this stage, it lacks a little ripeness and complexity.
