WTN: Correggia Solo du Emilia Tredici NV...(short/boring)

Also tried this last night w/ Steve:
1. Matteo Correggia Solo du Emilia Tredici (13%; LS013; 45% Nebbiolo/45% Barbera/10%Brachetto) Canale NV (2013): Med.dark color; strong Nebbiolo/pungent/tarry some floral/violets/lilacs bit earthy/dusty fragrant very attractive nose; quite tart/austere strong tarry/Nebb/pungent some earthy/dusty light floral/violets/Nebb rather hard/austere flavor w/ some hard/ripe tannins; very long slight Nebb/floral/lilacs strong Nebb/pungent/road tar rather hard/austere finish w/ some hard/rough tannins; a good-drinking red that needs food w/ it; great price at $14.37 (PrimaIlC)

A wee BloodyPulpit:
1. This was part of my last IlConsorzia shipment and I wanted something less mature than the Cote-Rotie, so cracked it open to share w/ Steve. Correggia is widely regarded as bringing fame to the Roero region and earning the respect of his neighboring B/B producers. Alas, died in a tractor accident in 2001.

I' ve never seen this in Italy and, mostly, their website does not mention it at all.

It is an experimental wine made by young Giovanni Correggia.

Exact name:

Matteo Correggia

Solo Duemilatredici (only in 2013)

Thanks for the inside info, Roberto. From the script on the label, it was difficult to make out that 2'nd word.
