Initially bit dusty but nice medium body with notes of cherries and herbs. First Umbria tasting recommended at Philippe's Wine cellar in New Orleans

Rich red fruit w/ a tar edge. Nice depth for a wine which never saw any oak.

A good solid wine, but doesn't live up to high expectations..maybe an odd year. Fruit was good but not overly complex.
