A lot stewier and slightly higher in alcohol than I remember from prior vintages but still an exemplary Salice Salentino. Love Li Veli’s work.

Dark fruits on the nose. More complex than Zinfandel with more leathery notes, and a bit more tannins. Lives up to bitter name, plesently, sucks my cheeks in. Light spice on the palate, heavy spice on the finish. Paired well with bolognese and chicken a la mattone with smokey notes.

Perfect amount of smooth and fruity with a lingering finish (not too long). Great with water but not necessary. Dark fruits. Earthy. Hint of spice on the front. Enjoyed at North Italia in Dunwoody.

Better than I remembered. Good acidity balances out the initial jammyness.

Sensual, just a baby but showing sexy notes of spicy baked red fruits and soil, can't wait to try again in another few years.
