Fruit sourced from five vineyards, Brunate, Liste, Cerequio, Cannubi and Raviole. Medium Ruby red color with aromas of red fruit, earthy spices, floral and cedar. On the palate flavors of sour cherry and raspberry with notes of floral, smoky tobacco, vanilla and oak. Long finish, nice balance with fine soft tannins, ending with an earthy character. Good now, a few bottle years will benefit!

Lean but still a tad austere. Plum and orange peel over cocoa and leather with light tannin and acidity

Cuvée from five excellent domaines. Tea dominated. Needed some rustic food…
A few hours in the decanter helped.

2012 drunk in 2020. Beautiful color with slight tawny age on the rim. Distinct leather, jerky smokiness, yet very clean with a clear sour fruit. Definitely improved after an hour or two in the open bottle.

Muted nose begrudgingly offers up rose petals, moss and cherries. Palate displays excess acidity, which overwhelms the tannins. Finishes sharp and clumsy. Surprising for this producer.
