A March Saturday family dinner (Swedish apartment): No expectations given previous tasters' opinions. Upon opening: watery tart cherries with dry tannins, finishing short. BUT! 20 hrs of slow-ox presented a full-blooded VNdM that made me think at first that there was some kind of mistake. This is a young Sangiovese from mature grapes displaying warm cherries, some herbal content, M+ acids and a magnificent tannic structure that (I swear) was not there upon first opening... Amazing! Final bottle in ~2018. Wish we had more.

Really good wine. Not outstanding by any means. Lacks character?

Supple and fruit forward VN. Well made with smooth mouthfeel and red fruit. Slightly boring...
