  July 25, 2013 - Well, the whole experience is more subtle than previous - tasting my bottle i kept in perhaps a below average cellar re: holding temp...I think aged faster than usual as is to warm.
  
  Anyway - Nice enough experience, a little more tart and 1-2 dimensional but worth a try and to properly cellar till 2015?

  May 10, 2013 - This is new on shelf and from the Winnipeg Wine Fest...not well documented on the internet but this is clearly marked as Aglianico and the Campostellato designation....Initially thought this was very light and candied, but with a little chill and 30-60 mins of air and food of course it is a little better and appeals to my desire for more of a lighter and new world style of wine with coming summer. Some folks will think this is a little "contrived" but I think you should give this a try.
  
  So nose is rich with a light meaty/vanilla quality to the fruit which is otherwise ripe raspberry/blackberry. Nice. Palate thankfully is similar - tannin/acids are drying and let their presence known. With time, like this. Again, fruit is up front and pushing limits of natural/artificial.
  
  This write up on web from some Italian sources kind of mimic my experience. I think this is good for price and will mature and hold up for next 2-4 yrs.
