Lots of character and great drink-ability! Nose is full of raisinated fruit, figs, prunes, dried sour cherries with some burned earthiness, murky old wood, a bit of barnyard and showing a bit of maturation in the form of leather and tobacco. Medium acidity, medium body, medium+ tannins and a fairly good medium+ long finish. Great structure that even though there is a bit of alcoholic sweetness to it is well balanced by dry, distinct tannins and a very dry finish. …

Pale intensity, garnet color. Some sediment in the bottle. The nose is developing with a medium intensity. Aromas of dark cherries, raisins, dried herbs, dry soil, leather, spice box and old wood.

Intensity is medium with flavors of raisins, dried cherries, leather, spice box and warm soil. The finish is medium(+) and very dry. A great …

Mmmmm! Right on. Great recommendation with an old favorite Roquefort burger I haven't had in years from The Spotted Pig. I love New York! Young cherries, thyme, horse hair, with great balance and verve.

Light amber brick color. Nose of vanilla, baking spices. Palate of delicate red fruits with spice. Integrated tannins. Really nice italian varietal. Reminds me a little of baby nebbiolo but with more fruit.

Interesting varietal. Very distinctive. I liked it. It might not to be to everyone's taste. A good recommendation from Fountainhead.

100% gaglioppo without any oak. Light transparent red with some browning and bricking. Already shows enough of development, with nice complexity (herbs, leather and spice) and a bit of tannic grip in a light and red-fruity frame. Highly enjoyable now, and a bargain at 125 dkk (Cibi e Vini)

excellent. Light red, but full flavoured red - fruity, but not overly.
