Valpolicella, Verona, Veneto, Italy
Wonderfully complex. Dried cherry, black cherry, and fig join leather, tea, and animale flavors. Not at all overripe. Wonderfully balanced.

Mar 27th, 2015Kind of forgot about this one. Sat in the back for about a year or two more than what I had wanted. Sweeter fruits are gone. Mature pipe tobacco, mushroom and Earth. Really stiff truffle and a little bit of bleu cheese. Not really much of a fan. For someone who eats, drinks, and breathes Italian wines with significant oxidation, this wine is probably right up their alley. It really wasn't for me.

SO earthy, like an amarino - dry resin - very smokey and a touch of black cherry.
