Such force and power, incredible concentration of black fruit and cassis. French Oak is also a bit overbearing at this stage- bitter tannins take over at the end. Surly teenager that will soften and mature with proper care. Great aging potential for under $30, I’m sold.

Deep ruby in color; black pepper, black cherries, and tabacco on the nose; high acidity; high tannins; tastes like blackberries, tart cherries, and wet slate with a long finish.

Slight garnet. Aroma including raisin, blue and black berry, cherry. Concentrated. Spicy. Tannin which needs more year aging. Chocolate nuance. Dry. 20 @, Pieroth, 240413

Feb 14th, 2023Had this in Bellagio, It and it was so good, I brought a case back… I know I should let this bottle rest after the shipment, but I can’t wait. Best easy Italian table wine around!
