  Purple/Crimson with a transparent edge. Much higher viscosity than I’d expect given the alcohol content. Long legs. Nose is red fruit, cured meat, and some earthy notes that I find more common in Bordeaux wines. Palate is tart red fruit and a fairly tannic finish. There is good balance and generous mouthfeel that’s my favourite characteristic of this wine. I enjoyed it, this was my fourth and last bottle. One the fence about grabbing more as a Sangiovese side car for pasta plates. 5+12+16+7=90

  Gjennomsikrig rød med snev av brunoransje modning.
  
  Noe urter, kirsebærstein, modne mørke kirsebær og moreller. Elegant!
  
  Middels fylde, fin syrefriskhet, fine bløte tanniner, urtete bitterhet i avslutningen. Noe alkoholvarme. Lang.
