Awesome. Perfect fruit and balance. And oh yes drank it with white truffles and hand made pasta.

Top notch stuff with such a lovely red fruited nose. So fine & profound. On the palate the tannins kicking in. A lot of flesh to the bones. Give it time.

Crushed rose petal and other dried flowers over a base of spiced meat... Very lively. This is a great, great wine, imo.
