Deep color up to the rim. Nose was a bit muted of fruit; alcohol dominated. Flavors of juicy blackberries. Had it with ribeye steak au poivre -- delicious!

Had this wine with steak au poivre. Full-bodied wine that's tamed down over the years. The dessicating tannins are now not as prominent, but then again, neither is the powerful blackberry and black plum fruit. I didnt notice any secondary notes yet even though the wine is 9 yrs old. Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable wine to have as a change of pace or as the periodic "nice occasion" wine. I also think this wine has at least another 3-5 yrs of life left (maybe more).

Drank at Y&M's for BBQ. I was surprised at how lively this wine still is. Light bouquet of roses. Delicate cranberry flavor, nice balanced acidity. Although there were still detectable amount of tannins, they tied the wine together. All in all, it was an enjoyable wine from a little known producer in Neive, Piedmont.
