Light vanilla floral nose. Cherry spice on the palate. Needs to open longer, light and not too complex. Try again in a couple years

Lots of plummy flavours with a bit of a cool mountain air finish. Think black truffles. Went very well with a homemade red sauce.

Ok. Don’t think I would buy again. Fairly high al robusta syrupy type wine. Not my style.
