Tasty dark fruit, spice, and tobacco on the nose and palate with savory tannins and balanced acidity on the moderate long finish.

Quick decant. Muted nose of black plum and raspberry. Dried and earthy black currant is dense but again a little dull, with dried rosemary and volcanic soil. Firm tannins and oak on the finish. Seems slightly tired at this tasting.

Love the acid, which is what I want (and my food wanted) from this lively Italian.

More aromatic, leather, tobacco nose. More full-bodied than Californian.Tannin so still has aging potential.

Color: medium ruby Nose: wonderful licorice and ripe dark cherry; some burnt tire and wet stone. There is plum and a range of tobaccoes like Latakia and Virginia. With time herbs and more plastic aromas as well as mackerel and sea foam Palate: medium-high acidity, medium-high tannins on a medium body. Sharp and cleansing. Aromas confirm the nose with a sour patch feel Finish: long Excellent wine that is really awesome right now and will also be good with age. …

PnP. Earthy plum, shoe leather, and olive brine on the nose. Dense palate weaves together tannin layers and dark red fruits, with acidity and a slight citrus tang. The fruits fade and the tannins take over on the finish before giving way to a bang of cranberry and a touch of dried herb and volcanic soil. Quite complex.
