Weekly tasting group #099; South Italy (@ BD): The bouquet is still a bit reticent with dark fruits and some vanilla. On the palate dark fruits, herbs and spices, some vanilla a firm amount of acidity nicely balanced with a touch of sweetness and sticky and a bit drying tannin. Also firm bitterness. Give the wine until 2016 or 2017 to open up and integrate a bit more.

Weekly tasting group #073; Red wines from the Mediterranean. (@ BD): The bouquet is a bit dusty with dark fruits like plums. Some vanilla as well. On the palate a very mild start with some sweetness, but also good acidity. There are leather, chocolate and herbs and spices. Firm a bit dying tannin and some pleasant bitterness. Early maturity now and around 2015+ it will probably be even a little better.

Flott vin. Fortsatt dyp rød. Typisk aglianico. Siste flaske kan vente!

Dark fruits, plum and prunes. Hefty tannins. Without the rubber smell i dislike to find in some Aglianico wines.
