Absolutely Needs a 30 minute decant. Discombobulated on open. Do NOT drink on open.
Nose is medium cherry and cherry flower. As it opens nose is a basket of flowers. Violets. Lilacs. Lavender. Daaaaaamn negri. Really crazy assed addictive. Like a drug. An alternative reality that sucks you in.
Palate is silky cherries. Some spice. Grippy tanins that melt after 30. A hint of chocolate. A hint of cherry licorice. Juicy. Such sweet hedonistic fruit. Jamalamadingdong.
Nice juicy licorice finish.
Bought from fass selections.

The 2021 Mazèr Valtellina Superiore DOCG 2021 from Valtellina pours a bright garnet and opens with lifted aromas of red currant, cranberry, rhubarb, and orange peel layered with subtle notes of anise, cedar, and alpine herbs. On the palate it’s medium-bodied and elegant, with lively acidity and firm, chalky tannins that frame flavors of tart red berries, licorice, and a touch of earth and spice. The finish is savory and mineral-driven, showing the cool alpine character of 100% Nebbiolo (locally called Chiavennasca) with a clean, persistent structure that should continue to evolve nicely over the next several years. 🍷  — 4 months ago

Good basement wine. — 8 years ago
the best wine made in my home valley. It uses the same process as Amarone but it is smoother and fresher without loosing complex structure and strong cherry and caramel — 10 years ago
