The 2017 Terrano has a wild and animalistic personality. Dark musky blackberry, earthy minerals, white pepper and savory herbs come together to form a beguiling display. It’s slim in texture but makes up for it with a zesty mix of tart red and black berries, strewn with salty minerals and exotic spice. A twang of tart citrus adds lift as grippy tannins settle in, all under an air of pretty violet flowers. This is best enjoyed at the dinner table, especially in its youthful state and with all of that nervous energy. That said, it’s a beautiful expression of Terrano. (Eric Guido, Vinous, January 2021)

2012 vintage
Черешня, чёрная смородина, вишневая косточка, подсохшая фиалка, чуть-чуть подлеска, черный перец. Бодрая кислотность, неагрессивные, но четкие и длящиеся танины. Натурально и тонизирующе.

2011 vintage. If there weren't already such a thing as black currants, this would be the reference point.
