Vintage 2015 / nice craftsmanship Le Volte is. Spicy, pepper, a bit sturdy - I like that - cherries in aftertaste.

A very good quality wine, tehere the ripe and defined primary fruit is embracing the secondary oak aromas, lacking some evolvement and persistence on the palate to reach higher. Alcohol is a bit warming and out of context, and the wine would benefit of a better intergration.

Youthful. Big tannins. Young vines. Dense with dark fruit.
