2000 vintage definitely showing its age, bricking slightly, fruit characteristics are fading leading to earthy undertones. Not much time left in this one, but when paired well with food certainly drinkable

Nice Umbria blend with a little age and a little rustic funk. Great combo for a lite lunch of nonni’s soup, salami and cheese on Xmas day.

Horrible cork and the wine was bad. Something went wrong with the packaging.

Possibly tastes nicer as I'm drinking it overlooking the Puglian hills. But great balance. 2009 vintage, highly recommend

This wine is in a great spot. Loads of power (expected from a super Umbrian) but turned on some finesse as well. Glad I have more
