Deep garnet hue, tertiary, sweet/sour, energetic acid for its aged character, lingering dusty tannin and amaro spice. Old leather, dried and stewed cherry/plum fruit, dust, porcini, animal hide, hung meat, cigar wrapper, bitter roots, bitter cocoa powder, wet earth, mulch, rotting leaves. Love its chewy and upfront impact on the palate. Very complex and very drinkable

Lots of bottle variation with these wines but when it's on it's on! So good. Meaty and full but bright acidity.

Roasted meat, berries, savory, smoke, high acid. Seems like it'd be a contrarian wine but it works beautifully. On our list starting tonight.

Earthy berries and smooth tannins. Always one of the very best of the alpine reds.
