Drank from a magnum at birthday dinner in Reciotti. Don't quite like the nose. Very smelly and bretty, with ovewhelming aromas of sweaty leather. Much better on the palate, with good fresh acidity, notes of cassis and a smooth mouthfeel. Just lacking some tannin structure, otherwise pretty pleasant.
