Lighter on the palate than the nose; nice surprise. Smooth and light. Like coppa - soft, melts in your mouth, not bitter, a little buttery and very slightly sweet with a hint of herbal notes. Enjoyable with pasta and pesto dinner at home.

According to Parker: opaque purple in color with blackberry, creosote, incense and charcoal notes, a touch of spring flowers, blueberry and blackberry, the wine is full-bodied, multidimensional with terrific concentration, purity and palate presence.
