December 16, 2023 - Bought from a small liquor store that didn't realize what they had in stock.. Yummy wine!
Color. Dark red, very little, if any brick at the edge.
Nose. Cherries, cedar, cocoa, grilled meats
Palate. Cherries, prunes, cocoa, lingering, but sift tannins. A few raisins. Still yummy after 19 years. -

December 24, 2015 - Quite fruit forward And still fresh but unbalanced and angular. Decent finish.

December 1, 2013 - Nice, complex flavor profile but little structure. Drink now as I cannot see age becoming it

October 7, 2012 - Very new world. Pop and pour, ready to go. Some cherry, dark fruit. Heavy oak. Easy drink, crowd pleasing. Nothing that is distinctly "Italian".
