Jun 24th, 2017I liked this vintage much more than I have previously. Oak more restrained and the volcanic notes more pronounced, still a bit loose and juicy, but a strong effort/result.

Shipped this little gem home from Sicily! I was pleasantly surprised by its jammy, Pinot noir flavor, with a very subtle cherry taste. Not too dry or sweet.
