Though not giving much on the nose it more than compensated with a bright, red floral palate that was Burg-like, long, notes of tar and tea, dark cherry and leather. Beautiful.

2004 vintage. Tight and wound up. Ripe with dusty undertones. Almost California on the nose, but unquestionably Italian on the profile.

Beautiful, perfect but with tons of intriguing character, dried sour cherries, opium, seductive savory herb, saline minerality, and bright punchy finish
