PnP - medium garnet red with watery rim. Very floral and seducing, crunchy red cherry, cedar, spices with earthy and mineral notes. In the mouth it is very silky with good acidity. Tannins were quite present at first but mellowed out throughout dinner. It seems that the wine in general became more mellow with air. I understand 2011 aren’t for the long haul and this is quite enjoyable now

A beauty! Ruby in color. So fresh and lots of red fruit and a touch of candy. Great tannins and good acidity.

Didn't show well, lacking structure on the finish.

sicuramente tipico ma manca un po' di identità, magari col tempo....la beva invece è interessante e abbastanza facile da subito
