The nose showed intense black fruits and savory spices, dried orange, dark earth, ash and hints of violets. On the palate, I found lean austere textures with blackberry fruits, green pepper and herbs, The finish was long and structured with saturating tannin, black fruit and hints of tobacco. There’s serious potential here, but it will take some time in the cellar to reach maturity. #collisioni17

Slightly acidic and not as full as expected. Subtle floral and mineral notes with faded strawberry. The initially firm tannins became almost silky when we drank the rest the next day after decanting for half an hour.

Jul 6th, 202416/20 (89/100) Аромат кожи, чёрных ягод, лакрицы и шоколада, при этом фруктовая составляющая выглядит приглушенно. В развитии проявляются ноты табака. Тельное с высокой кислотностью и интенсивными, замшевыми по текстуре танинами. Строгое во вкусе.

Incense and a bit of a fennel element on the nose. Good Aglianico del Vulture.

Subtle, clean, fruit flavors, but NOT sweet, well balanced.
