Dark fruit, minerals, peppermint, leather, earth. I can't believe this is my first time having this grape.

A new favorite Italian variety, fascinating melange of fruits and minerals, and in a very serious structural framework--never had heard of the variety or producer, and barely the region--wine offers endless discovery

Dark, brooding and tight when opened. It eventually softened up and was showing violets at the end of the hour.

A real live wire act. Perfectly balanced on the razors edge between fruit stone and acidity.

Ripe, light bodied, Southern Italian wine with complex nose. Dried fruits, mineral, leather, tobacco, with hints of petroleum. Very smooth on the palate with soft tannins and medium to low acidity.
