  very interesting nose, less complex on the palate; did open 2 hrs before serving but no decant; not sure whether there is room for further improvement

  NOT blind
  
  Interesting - straight from the bottle, quite a powerhouse. Dark and broody yet not too alcoholic in the back end.
  
  Then after an hour decant (and with comparison to the other wines in the blind flights) it appeared to have thinned significantly.
  
  Dark fruit on the nose with definite cherry notes. Tannins 7+
  
  HL2 FD 4

  This is a wow ! very serious and complex Nero d'avola. I first tried Mille e una Notte at La Saletta in Corotona back in 2000. I fell in love immediately. This is deep hugely aromatic with complex flavors of blackberries and cherries, complicated by spices, and beautiful balancing acidity. At 11 years old this was singing, but it still had a tannic backbone and massive amounts of fruits which has now sent me on a search for more of the '11s. Beautiful wine.
