Taurasi Aglianico
To me this was obviously past peak. Brown and hazy with sediment, almost rusty. The palate showed root beer and balsamic. Other tasters were waxing poetic, maybe my palate lacks the ability to detect the same complexities. Or the other tasters were just wrong.

Deep dark color, balsamic and eucalyptus and meaty on the nose. Spicy and full body on the palate. Perfect with spicy pasta. On its own astringent. #taurasi #italianwines

Palate: punchy tannins, dry, not sweet at all (as it tastes) - balanced overall
