Years ago, this was the most under-the-radar winery ever, but recently I have been disappointed. However, this is really good. Don’t expect a Gattinara or Barolo. But this has a ton of character. Extremely light color. But a nose that explodes out of the glass. More coconutty oak than I’d ideally like in the nose, but there is also loads of spicy, aged cherry liqueur, yeasty and loamy notes, and bright limestone powder. Flavorful in the mouth, with leathery and spice notes adding to the dried cherry flavors. Unique. — 6 months ago

Delectable ate my contemporaneous notes on this, but from what I remember it had a beautiful balance of fruit and extract, just enough tannin, bright acids and high-toned limestoney Paso minerality. I prefer this over most Taurasis I’ve had. — 5 years ago
