Community Tasting Note

  January 8, 2016 - Kind of different than what I was looking for in an Italian wine but it has its charms. Doesn't really strike me as particularly "old world", as it seems to polished (smooth, silky, almost as if micro oxygenated?) and fruit sweet. Very brambly dark fruit like blackberry. Does not have a whole lot of tannin presence, so I would not pair this with steak. Kind of a tough call for food, certainly good with dark chocolate but maybe just best enjoyed as a tasty sipper on its own. Fresh and compelling, nicely rounded now and everything has integrated well. Not showing signs of age creeping in now, but I don't think I would hold much longer. 1 more bottle left.
