Very pale and translucent. Predominately vegetal character. Nose is dominated by funky vegetal notes. Palate packs a punch but in an understated way. Strong negroni notes - orange and some strawberry. Serious unique wine that shows how pinot expresses place better than any grape. — 4 months ago

Probably overrating out of pleasant surprise, but love the clean, bright 100% temprannillo, and integrated overall experience. Trying with dinner, so not likely to identify the dill and leather others mentioned (whatever it is goes great with quesadillas). It reads like a soft negroni, which I consider high praise. — 4 years ago

Not as bitter as Campari, not as sweet as Aperol. It makes an excellent spritz. — 2 years ago

Even better on day 2! Let this breathe! Forest floor/tertiary notes, pine, cedar, cocoa, plum, sweet berries, I like the Campari note that someone noted... that sort of medicinal quality!
On the palate, stemmy, upfront tannins, smooths out into an etheral expression of tart forest berries, plums, some oak, coffee bean, cocoa nib, pine/rosemary, quite savoury.
This almost reminds me of something out of Italy!
Overall, a beautiful Loire red with lots to offer. Love the savoury characteristics! Cheers! — 3 years ago

Terrific campari like aperitivo. Perhaps a bit richer with more complex spice notes. Highly recommend in a negroni or on the rocks. — 4 years ago

Just incredible. The most delicious blend of all things bitter orange: neroli, pith, juice. I would pay beaucoup bucks for a bottle from the 70’s like this one — 5 years ago
