Does not like this wine:

Friday, June 18, 2021 - P&P. Crazy floral nose and palate (the label suggests violets specifically). By far the most floral red wine I have ever had. The review by Gambero Rosso says floral is "characteristic" of the varietal, but this is perhaps amplified by the partial carbonic maceration. So, if you're into floral, you will love this wine. Personally though I find it over the top and fairly one-dimensional (although there is some black pepper in there too). Glad I tried it, but would not re-buy.
