@Delectable Wine this is actually the Ju Quarto Priore label which i had been able to review in the past, i was wondering why I wasn't able to find it this time🤷♂️
However this is a very focused red from cesanese grape. It's smooth, but vibrant with more evident complexity in the aftertaste rather than on the nose
Quite long and easy drinking

Great with a grilled pizza. Very complex flavor. — 3 years ago
Luscious. Full of fruit. No Tanin. Only wish I had more — 4 years ago
Very bright with hood minerality. Nice notes of apricot, nectarine, and some melon-y notes as well. Floral and nutty with decent acidity. — 2 years ago
Color is quite youthful. Nose has Graham cracker, tilled soil, dried cherry and cherry ooze. Big whack of (non-jammy) fruit initially, but quickly framed by soft tannins, and a nice but subtle minerally, savory component comes in. Very nicely balanced, with nice acids. Nicely concentrated too. Will go great with my pasta tonight. — 3 years ago
The incredibly rare and legendary 2000 vintage and a Montepulciano that’s simply in a league of its own! It took some time in the decanter to shed an initial funk and whiff of VA which had me worried but ultimately did, and showed fabulously. There’s an alluring “wildness” to this wine that’s just so intriguing. It’s incredibly complex, layered with aromas of dried red fruit, game, exotic spice, coffee beans, violets and a menthol freshness. Time in bottle has added elegance and detail and the palate is unbelievably silky with a finish that keeps on going. Special wine. — 9 months ago
Skin contact, pale yellow/orange. Amazingly fragrant: jasmine, passion fruit. Really really good — 3 years ago
By the glass. I think this was it? $20. Orangina up front with a lingering savoriness. — 4 years ago

I preferred this base cuvee over the Contrada. — 3 months ago
