Earthy and savory. Salty and notes of cayenne pepper. Opens up with hints of blueberry. Clove and other baking spices.

I didn't think this wine was balanced - minerality, herbaceous, and light red fruit.

Much better than the last bottle, though not particularity complex. Maybe this was both a better bottle and a better pairing with homemade bolognese.

Definitely off. Though I'm not sure if it was simply oxidized or cooked.

Excellent! Tabak, leather, red fruits, smell of roses, quite some power.

Dark fruits. Bright and dry simultaneously. Slight pepperiness. Excellent with carbonara or cacio e pepe.

Single minded but complex. Berries and acid in a nice balance. A straight line with a zag.
