October 4, 2015 - Mike G and Berto visit Cleveland (Italian wines)+ (Willoughby, Ohio): Easily my WOTN. My wife's too. The kind of wine that makes you stop and go "holy crap, this is good". Thanks Berto. This is a red based dessert wine. The nose has chocolate, coffee, raspberries, strawberries and black raspberries and leather. I could smell it all night. On the palate, layers and layers of fruit, complexity, still some dark chocolate notes. Great balance. sweet but not even close to cloying. Great acidity. The finish is amazing. Just a wow, wow. My palate was tired, my stomach was full and this just demanded attention. I would love to revisit this someday in a more sterile environment. Heck I would love to revisit under any almost any conditions. I can't imagine how good this will be in ten years!
