Raspberry/chocolate truffle nose. Dark, full bodied, tannic, sophisticated, with persisting chocolate and spice reminiscent of nutmeg. Long, dry, ripe fruit finish. Delicious. — a year ago

Medium, fruit-forward, a little soil and tannin to anchor it. Plenty of potential and see why the elder brethren are popular. The Rosso is a superb pizza wine and a bit more. Probably should wait for under $20. — 4 years ago

Nose of pine nuts and resin with a hint of pipe tobacco. Almost smells like an Anchor Christmas ale after it has aged 3 years. The entry was quite a bit more sweet than I expected. Tobacco and dates with a plum and spice. Finishes slightly stiff but not a bad thing here as I think I prefer these on this side of the hill before they get more raucous. 20+ years ahead. — 5 years ago

I’ve normally had these more in their youth when their exuberance is an added quality, but I found this to be a nice balance before turning more herbal and barnyard dominant. Sweet cherry tobacco, stewed cherry cordial, and bayleaf up front before it goes more spice, earthy and plum driven. Zero leather or aged funk here, so a long life ahead.
