Tasty the first night. Fell apart by the next day.

May 31st, 2021Clear deep Ruby color and full bodied with medium acid. Lots of barnyard funk together with leather and tobacco notes on the nose. Barnyard funk, dark cherry and tobacco notes on the palate leading to a smooth velvety mildly tannic finish. Delicious, distinctive and interesting wine. My first Copertino so don't know if this bottle is typical of the style, but I like it!

Apr 27th, 201895% negroamaro & 5% malvasia nera actually. Punches way above its price class (10&change on sale), gorgeous red fruits but all tempered by an old school tobacco/earth frame which, come to think, is what I like in any wine. A little funk too. Analogous to D’Oupia’s Minervois from Langedoc in simplicity, value & outrageous delish factor.

Nose is just odd. Just all over the place.
Palate is stewed fruits. Cinnamon? Water-like texture. Barely drinkable.
