Went beautifully with braised beef short rib and portobello mushroom rotini. Lean body, tight tannins, but plenty of fruit. Wonderful acidity made this a great pairing and cut through the fat on the short ribs. Opened at noon, drank with dinner at 5:00 and finished it at lunch on Monday. It needed it.

I love this wine, but I have to say, I am still chasing my first experience with this. The fact the Dr. Carletti said there were four different bottlings of this keeps me guessing. Licorice, red fruits. Mineral. This wine stands up straight to my mustard vineagrette and garden greens.

Fruity and acidic, only balances with savoury food.

Taste of dark & sour cherries, dried herbs, slight espresso. Tart finish. High acidity but in balance.
