smoth tannins, very elegant wine, fits good to venison steaks I suppose; together with venison ragout it was not as good as amarone because the fruitiness lacks

Lovely dark tones on the nose of blueberry, blackberry, red and black currant and cocoa powder. Once it was able to breathe a bit, a really nice wine on the palate. Dark chocolate infused red and black berry fruit with hints of earth, sage, other pleasant herbal tones, and some dried leaves. Very nice. Goes great with red meat sauce and pasta!

Big and bold, aging well. Just starting to get the hint of brownish color. Subtle nose at first, but came to life after about 30 minutes. The finish is a little flat, but it's great otherwise. I think it would have been much better with food.
