Strawberry jam and plum jam on the nose. Blueberry, slate cocoa powder. Also tasted coffee grounds! Nice long finish. Decsnted snd improved over an hour.

Lots of Alcohol on the nose. Raspberry and floral nose. Cinnamon, Rasbpberry, lead pencil and strawberry tart. A bit funky. Not terrible- but not worth the effort when there are so many other wines to drink.

Sour cherry, herbs some floral and cedar on the nose. Similar palate but a bit tannic. Definitely better with food, grilled sausage and tortellini with marinara. (Italian wines alway better with food!!). Maybe better in a year- but so many other options- would not buy again.
