Really enjoyed this one. Cherry and roses on the nose. Rounder and juicier than expected - perhaps I was expecting Barbera d'Asti - with some spice. The acidity is moderate and compliments the fruit. The tannins are smooth. The finish has oak and burnt rubber.

Elegant, perfumed nose. Medium weight with spice, berry, licorice notes. Very good bottle of Piedmont red.
