Interesting coffee smell on day 2. I have very little experience with italian wines so it is difficult for me to judge, but that was a very enjoyable bottle!

Venturini has never stole my heart and this wine confirms my reservations. This wine lacks real depth and fruit. It is very alcoholic (16˚). Even after being decanted and being tasted after half an hour and after two hours, it simply does not sing, to say the least...
