v17. Pretty good! First time with this area. Pleasant peppery, cedar and black cherry nose. Luscious, deep, black cherry fruit. Long, chewy, slightly astringent leather finish. Enjoyable!

A highly characteristic nose of sweaty salty tart small dark berries (yes I need 5 adjectives :-), pinot-like red cherries, and some salty garden herbs; elegant and surprisingly light on the palate (13.5% alc) with fine tannins, but full of flavors and a long creamy finish. For me, aglianico is an odd but exciting grape.
