Dark, almost black dense color. Rich nose of raspberry, blackberry and tobacco. A great, silky mouthfeel with strong tannins in the finish. Full bodied, this wine has great integration. I wonder how good will it be in 5+ years, because now just the tannic finish is keeping me from giving a higher score. This is the best Montepulciano I've had. It had the complexity and texture of a great Bordeaux, and the bright dark berry flavours typical of a Montepulciano.

Rosso rubino con unghia porporina, cupo, impenetrabile. Naso di frutti neri, menta, terra. Bocca piena, succosa, con lungo finale speziato.

This was a rich, full-bodied red. Beautiful color, lots of fruit to the taste and wonderful earthy overtones to the nose. Great finish.

dense, black berry, tannic even after 3hr decant - probably too young.
