On the nose I got intense earthy notes, forrest floor, leather, maybe cherry - but heavy earth. On the palate, did not match the nose - was extremely acidic to the point of tasting citrus notes (in a red?!). Fell flat on the finish as well - not my favorite.

Intense and earthy. Dark cherries. High acidity that asked to be consumed with food. Pairs well with lasagna. Ripe tannins that have a hard time controlling the acidity. Day 2 is more if the same. You have to adapt to the wine. NI:3, FI:21, FC:6, B:3, L:4

Not their best vintage (‘06), but much stronger than some other years. Great value.

A quality offering. Bright cherry, spice, and granite. Enjoyed with pasta bolognese. Cheers.
