Licorice and ripe red fruit on the nose. Black cherry and soft leather notes on the palette in beautiful balance. Opens nicely so give it its due time. We decanted.

Needed to decant and next day opened up nicely. Good with pizza or pasta. Not overly complex, simple but enjoyable.

Dial up the funk! Very earthy and dry. Funky. Certainly the most directly wine geek-y of the single varietal Baracchi.

Overripe. Lacking any real complexity.
