Very dense and black in colour. These wines always remind me of Fruit and Nut milk chocolate. The colour makes you think full bodied but it’s actually light to medium bodied. A luscious mouth filling palate with the savoury milk chocolate together with notes of raisin and date. Supple yet persistent tannins. Reminiscent of a Priorat Garnacha in some respects.

Young still.
Bombastic, oaky and rich. Beautiful with steak Florentine. Needed every bit of the hour decent

The best Valpolicella I’ve ever tasted? Prolly. Dill, wonderful oak notes on nose & palate.

Medicinal, young, and explosive out of the glass. Plums, licorice, and a port like concentration. Ethereal

New world modern style baby Amarone. Quite oaky but I really loved it. Beautiful dried black cherry, dried black plum, mocha coffee, black chocolate, tobacco leaves, raisins and graphite on the nose. The high acidity is the key factor holding this wine. Dusty tannin and ultra long finish. Pure joy. 14% abv. Warning: Burgundy lovers, you need to leave right now 😆

Big nose of dried or stewed prunes, raisins, oak, mocha and a hint of petroleum. Big wine, however still youthful.
