IWS Calabria and Puglia (My place, Kent Street): From Coravin. Slightly oxidised, leather, dusty baked spice, alcohol warmth, a little tobacco leaf. Juicy, leather, oak, muted savoury red berry fruit and slightly grainy tannins. Meh.

No decant; dark, burnished purple; gamey nose of barn, must, funghi, herbs, plums; round structure with dusty, but still vigorous tannins; touch of bacon, schist, heavy load of stewed plums, bacon, sage; a distinctive wine, and great QPR; 17.5

Initially with nice red fruit but strong tannins and barnyardy aromas, after decanting for a few hours calmed considerable with nice red fruit, current, and vanilla.

70% Nero di Troia, 30% Montepulciano. Very well made in the hottest of vintages. Dark, ready but with the structure to last for a number of years.
