Lusciously fruity and earthy at the same time. On the nose there are notes of black cherry and wet leaves/forest floor. Still more fresh black fruit on the palate, a little bit of vanilla incense and violets. Quite decent acidity with silky tannins and med + alcohol which is balanced nicely. Paired well for me with baked Provoleta cheese! — 6 years ago
Warm vibrant Ruby color with a bouquet of berry fruit aromas and sweet perfumed herb spice. On the palate flavors of plum, cherry and blackberry with pepper and herbs, good structure, balanced with savory acidity and soft tannins. Medium+ finish ending with juicy fruit.

my guess was that it'll probably be nebbiolo, barbera, sangiovese and amarone. i came close.
besides the one with appassimento treatment guessing what is each one is far behind my tastebuds (for now 😊)

Medium-dark ruby hue. Aromas of blackberry, blackcurrant, cassis, leather, sage. Plus body, plus tannins, and plus acid - but otherwise smooth and beautifully balanced on the palate. 60% Barbera, 40% Syrah. — 3 months ago
