Valpolicella, Verona, Veneto, Italy
2016 vintage. Black cherry, red plum, red currant, wild strawberry, hibiscus, sandalwood, tree bark, licorice, dried lavender. Very layered, with an almost sweet quality to the tannin. Good balance between fruit and earth and spice.

Really love this one. Second bottle. A little earthy on the nose and pretty silky in the mouth with some berries and soft tannins that linger.

Improved from last year. Red fruit, tempered by oak and that signature Italian leather. Velvety texture and a nice finish. It needs a little time open for the oak to relax, but I recommend finishing it in one night as it loses power after a day open.
