La riserva si nota dal colore. 12 mesi di botte grande 12 in bottiglia. Bei profumi di frutti. leggermente vanigliato.

Spicy, red fruited. Vanilla, an herbal influence on the finish, a bit like eucalyptus. Good.

Nice medium body with licorice, leather and dried cherries. Good soft tannins in the finish.

Nice, earthy red from our honeymoon in Sardinia. Wine tasting at 11 a.m. in the totally empty cantina for the winery!

One of the more interesting wines I've had. Big meat and spice off the cork and then flipped a 180 showing its hedonism. Mint chocolate chip ice cream. Seriously.
