medium ruby red, lighter around the edges. aromas of red perfume, freshly cut grass after a while, an underlying hint of oranges and an earthy tone. smooth on the palate, light but has rounded substance, fine tannins, with a spicy kick in the end. elegant and beautiful. i think it will be better still but it's very nice now.

Medium ruby red, lighter at edges. PnP, strong nose of ripe red berries with some bacon and smokiness. Medium body, slightly sharp acid. Elegant in a rustic way. Nice surprise.

Open to air in bottle ~6 hrs be4 dinner. Elegant nose of cherries, hint of caramel. Medium body, smooth palate and finish, harmonious always. Excellent wine but it felt a bit closed, needs more cellar time. (07 Roman was best Littorai I had lately). Generally, the common thing about every Littorai is that, everyone, whether or not they know or like wine, enjoy it v much.
