A little meaty and smoky on the nose with some bay leaf notes, red currant, jammy cherry fruit and a hint of green peppercorns Light and elegant in the mouth, still with a pleasant tannic bite. Great freshness to the currant and cherry fruit. Terrific minerality with more bay on the palate. Real attractive complexity here and great length. Turns a touch stemmy after several hours. Not a wine to linger excessively over but this totally over delivers. Great length and cut in the finale.

Donato's 2012 Enoteca 100 Italian Tasting Event (Redwood City, CA): Good nose. Very rich palate, but a little bit one dimensional to me. B

Cool, classic nose; sweet on the palate and a little spritzy - no.
