Monday, July 14, 2014 - Immediately after pouring the wood is just too strong here. Otherwise, pretty classic Italian stuff. Hard red and dark red candy, florals, big rustic tannins, some perfume. It's attractive but needs to shake that wood. Will give it some air and retest.
Day 2- It's smoothed out considerably, but only retains the rustic italian tone, losing the fruit and perfume. Smooth but uninteresting. 88 isn.
