Review
Although it’s now coming up for nine years of age and there’s a hint of Amontillado-sherry-type character in here, this has both nice richness and rather silky tannins. Drink now.

Review
The 2009 Lessona San Sebastiano allo Zoppo is powerful and also a touch rustic, but also pleasing in its own way. Now starting to show the first signs of aromatic and flavor development, the 2009 has quite a bit to offer. Firm, grippy tannins give the 2009 its shape and more than enough spine to support a mid-weight frame laced with hints of tobacco, smoke, leather, licorice, herbs and incense. Although not the last word in complexity, the 2009 will drink well for at least another handful of years.

Review
The 2011 San Sebastiano allo Zoppo is forward and quite open in its first impression, but it has plenty of supporting structure as well. Macerated cherry, dried herbs, leather, spice, tobacco and mint are front and center. The 2011 is maybe not quite as polished as the 2012 tasted alongside it, but it has plenty of character.

Review
The 2012 San Sebastiano allo Zoppo is a very pretty, elegant wine. Sweet floral accents lift a core of sweet red berry fruit. Blood orange, mint, cinnamon and pomegranate appear later as this suave, gracious wine opens with a bit of air. What a gorgeous wine this is.

Review
The 2013 San Sebastiano allo Zoppo is a wine of tremendous structure and bearing. Regal in the glass, the 2013 offers up an exciting mélange of black cherry, incense, sweet pipe tabacco, spice,
orange zest and crushed flowers. Deep and packed, yet also wonderfully translucent the San Sebastiano allo Zoppo expresses all the magic of Nebbiolo in Lessona. This is a tremendous
edition of one of the region's very top wines. Don't miss it.

Review
The 2015 San Sebastiano allo Zoppo is a super-classic Alto Piemonte wine. Crushed red berry fruit, mint, new leather, incense and tobacco grace this exquisite wine. Medium in body and nuanced, the 2015 is a total charmer. It's not the most complex wine at Sell, but it is very easy to drink and enjoy. Subtle savory and licorice notes linger.
