Dark but transparent red purple. Abundant nose of black cherry and graphite. Medium full palate of black cherry, anise, and black cranberry. Firm (medium plus) tannins that soften a bit with air wrapping up medium acidity through the moderate finish. A nicely complex expression of Nobile. Ready for top southern Italian fare or just upgrade more pedestrians fare. Drink now or hold until 2027.

Ruby with aromas of berry fruits and cooking spices. On the palate flavors of cherry and tart raspberry with cinnamon and fragrant herb spice. Fine tannins with high acidity, short finish ending with green earthy notes. Ok but I would pass.

Aromas of black fruits with toasty earthy spice. On the palate plum and cherry with cedar spice, cacao and espresso notes. Fine dusty tannins, medium finish ending with spicy pepper tones. Pricey! Better ones out there.

Big fan. Sour cherries, metal shavings, right amount of VA and good structure.

Earth, dried flowers and gun oil on the nose. Roses, leather and dried cherries in the mouth. Good acid, moderate tannins, medium-long finish. Well priced and correct for the region. Needs 3-5 more years for secondary characteristics to show.
