  powerful and rich cabernet sauvignon from Marche, Italia. Hard to open, needs a number of hours in the bottle or in a large baloon. Stony, with hints of earth and leather. Deep red at the eye, powerful nose with some hints of smoke and red fruit. The palate is consistent with the nose and hour after hour reveals more and more. Again cabernet sauvignon from Marche is an experience after Pathos and Pelago.

  Excellent structure, maturity and length of falvour. Deep blackcurrant and blackberry fruit. Fine soft dry tannins. Nice bite of acidity. Only thing lacking is more complexity. Wish I had more for $29 for sure. Lovely dinner cabernet.

  Juicy acidity, ripe dark cherry and blackberry and some spice. Very nice wine, perhaps a bit more New World than Old...

  Much better than previous bottle. After an hour of decanting, forest floor aromas slowly give way to deep black fruit and some minerality. Richly concentrated and still with plenty of structure, but the tannins are far in the background. A pleasantly surprising example of a well done Old World cab.
