Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, Italy
Good result for a tough vintage. Paired nicely with speck and provola pizza.

Apr 13th, 2016Аромат полный, фруктовый - черешня, вишня, замша, лесная подстилка. Красиво. Вкус свежий, ягодный. Послевкусие долгое, чуть суховатые танины. 17/20 (93/100)

A little angry, lean and uneven to start. Needed a night after being open to calm down and integrate. A relaxed rosso drinks better: strawberry, black cherry, red plum, licorice and herbs. I love the classic profile. I never thought I’d say this, but I don’t love the aggressive acidity - probably the result of a cool and difficult vintage - that is waging war with my stomach lining. This lean wine needs food. I’d suggest something richer and fattier than the Ropa Vieja (night 1) and Amy’s frozen vegetarian lasagna (night 2).
