Besoin d'être caraffé, meilleur le lendemain. Couleur pourpre, foncé, opaque. Nez réservé à l'ouverture, fruits rouges, un peu boisé. Attaque typique d'un amarone, mais réservé à l'ouverture. Fruits rouges, un peu boisé, tannin faible. Longue finale, mais pas très gouteuse. Le lendemain, les arômes sont plus développés.

Under-performing. Nothing bad, but nothing memorable. I've had (many) dolcettos I've enjoyed more. Fruit was omnipresent, but the flavor of it was muted, even dull. Spice was in the background but a minor player in the flavor profile. What minor tannin structure there was blew off in 30 minutes. Finish was good, but relatively short. If you own this, it won't last long, so drink up.
Not on my try again list.
