Huh, das ist ein wirklich grossartiger Wein. Explosiv und supersexy in der Nase, rotfruchtig, exotische Gewürze, Honig, Teer, etwas Rauch und Asche. Am Gaumen eine Macht aber auch frisch wie ein Gebirgsbach. Toller Zug, schlank und frisch wie ein Weisswein aber mit Fruchtdruck und Tiefe eines grossen Rotweins. Tolle Spannung und Länge, einer der besten Taurasi-Werte, die mir bisher begegnet sind. Ein grosser Wein und vielleicht nicht mal wirklich ganz im ersten Trinkfenster.

Decanted 1/2 hour….needs a few good hours or couple passes thru a Venturi….deep magenta youthful color even at nearly 10 yo… Nose has touch barnyard, framboise, blackberry… decent nose…slightly tart upfront with loads of cherries, earth, significant tannins that leave a bit tongue smacking acidic finish….really good wine….thinking longer aeration or more bottle time will improve…has ample structure to deliver the goods….interesting wine and a helluva good QPR… Will revisit in the future…

{Winery visit} A wow-wine in the making. Striking ruby color, with powerfully fresh aromas of earth, ripe fruits and a bouquet of red and purple flowers. With some time in the glass, a certain polish sets in, the fruit becomes a little more round, but the tannins also assert themselves. This has all the hallmarks of a cellar-worthy wine. Add this to the fact that their winegrowing is all sustainable/natural, their wood treatments are older barrels, older tonneau and older grandi botti, and, to my palate, you've got the best of all possible worlds. Really, it was the freshness that kept me pinned to my seat, kept me repeatedly burying my nose in the glass. Drink 2020-2036. 14,0% abv. highly recommended
