Nose of balsamic, herbs, and violets. Nice structure, and there is a balance between the fruit and dried herbs. Hints of espresso. Good now, and will last for quite some time. Paired with poached egg and mushroom pizza.

Decanted for 45 minutes. You could smell the fruit coming out of the decantor. After I had the first sip I knew not to let it decant for long. After 45 minutes it shutdown. Purple in color. On the nose I did get cherry and slight plum. On my palate I did get some cherry. Slight tannins and acidity.

Big earth, cherries and tannins. Too young to fully enjoy without decanting (we were in a restaurant), and it hasn't yet developed any of the secondary nuances that will make it complete. If you own it, hold it.

Got raped on this at Nello NYC for $36 a GLASS. It was really good though. I would have guessed the bottle to be more expensive than it is. We drank 6 glasses. Med-full bodied but not heavy. Nice mouth feel. Rich with loads of flavors and a huge Cherry Crush flavor finish.

For me this is a very good Italian table wine! I think it just isn't as good as what it was 10 years ago!

Decanted for 8 hours. Served with filet. Tannins were smooth. Wine had chocolate, almond and dark berries. We thought it was excellent.
