Super charged and deep with abundant dark fruit, coffee and dark chocolate notes. Wild flavours here, which are untamed at present, so hands off please for another few years. Great, layered and persistent finish.

Dark fruit, black cherries and plums, herbal and spicy, still quite youthful and compact yet beautifully deep and layered. After aeration this wine opens up and a mysterious mixture of breadcrust, incense, humidor, leather and hoisin is added. Very complete in Its mouthfeel, balance, complexity and persistence.
Terrific stuff, distinguished and noble.

Wild stuff providing a funky edge to its dense and beautifully textured dark fruit flavors. Tannins are serious and still youthfully tight, this infant has palate cleansing acidity and an already integrated oak regime.

Fantastic but don't tell anyone as there is not enough to go around! If you don't know Miani you wouldn't like it. This is not the impressive unicorn you are looking for... move along

Bordeaux, Margaux, Paulliac? Italy, Tuscany? Friuli, Italy! Super fresh, red fruit and good grip of tannins. 💕💕💕
