Community Tasting Note

Vinnut Likes this wine:

Monday, December 11, 2023 - Dark reddish-purple in color. Full, forward, & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of dark cherries, blackberries & plums with overtones of earthy/dusty & floral notes of violets, dried herbs, spices, minerals, tar, tobacco, dark cocoa, coffee, some cedar & a hint of vanilla in the background. Full to medium-full bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of dark cherries, blackberries & plums with spices, herbs, minerals, cocoa & a slight touch of vanilla. Long lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & extended airing but should develop further with additional aging. Based on my experience with this wine (notes here), I could imagine it only getting better with ageing & meriting a higher score at that time (95+). An indicative blend of 85% Sangiovese & 15% Malvasia Nera.
