Awesome nose. Mulled spices, spice, berry fruit, complex, cherries, deep. Palate is remarkably fresh with awesome texture and sap. Such nice purity and killer inner mouth florals and spice. Opulent and so deep with again, just slamming purity. Sweet, succulent and perfectly ripe. Gorgeous stuff.

What a nose. Classic. Tar, roses, mineral, chestnut, lovely aromas, like an old library. Complex and juicy with fabulous depth and richness yet lovely balance, purity and freshness. Excellent wine. Gorgeous today will improve.

So lucky to work with Davide. Incredible wines and so inexpensive. Classic nose. Dark cherries, tar, licorice, flowers, feral, sinewy and awesome aromas. Palate is powerful, deep, rich and elegant. Firm tannins but chewy and filled with dark fruits. Great freshness and purity. Sappy and so clean. Wonderful. Juicy and so dense but the balance and purity are there and off the charts. This will age wonderfully.

Nose is heaven. Tar roses earth. Some anise. Palate is medium density cherries with great acidity. Finish is so long and juicy. Licorice just coats the palate and lips. Really lingers. Wow. Bought from Fass Selections. ... great texture. Amazing internal aromatics. Black cherry liquor and licorice and chicory and spice. Amazing. Sweet licorice finish. Love this.

Nose is gorgeous. Fresh roses.

Palate has great elegant raspberry fruit with a pleasant hint of bitterness. Some chocolate.

Texture is like silk.
