taste: full bodied with gripping tannins and medium acidity. Powerful but balanced tones of black pepper, black fruits, asian spice tones and some blackberries as well
overall: A very young but extremely good aglicanico. Balanced and very powerful on both the nose and palate, this does need some age but is a thrill ride right now
