  Jason's birthday: Was sure this was a modern Supertuscan abomination but when revealed to be a Piedmont, I said this should be a producer that is to be avoided at all costs. Worse than a generic supermarket wine.

  Dark purple in the glass with a dark berry nose. Stewed blackberry compote on the palate, mild acidity and soft tannins. Medium length finish.

  Blackberry, cranberry, strawberry candy. More cranberry on the palate with ripe fruit, soft tannins and a medium length finish.

  Big, alcoholic (15%) and unlike some other reviewers I think it does show. Plenty of fruit, tannins just about gone, but to my taste rather a monolithic fruit bomb. Very smooth, no ruff edges, medium length but little complexity and little 'edge' or interest - and pretty expensive to boot.

  Black raspberry, pepper and licorice on the nose. Black raspberry jam, well integrated tannins and soft mouth feel. Mid to lengthy finish.
