In the bouquet juicy red berries as well as some cherries. Same on the palate, earthy flavors, dark berries, herbs and spices, beautiful acidity and still slightly sticky tannin. Beautiful and mature wine which is ready now and can be kept a few more years as well.

Time has treated this wine well. Rich, dark and woody undertones take over quickly from a still bright and fruit forward soft top note. Very suave and refined. The terroir is very much at the forefront. It doesn't get classier.
We had it with many varieties of high end Korean BBQ and it blended well with everything, marinated and unmarinated.

Retailer tasting (@ LB Italy): Some coffee in the bouquet. Amarene cherries and ripe forest fruits on the palate. Juicy. A lot of sweetness. Pleasant tannin and well dosed oak. For a price of around $ 16 this is a bargain. Can easily be stored another 3+ years. 88+
