Interesting bottle, my vote is that it most akin to a mid-weight sangiovese. Floral and fragrant, wonderful to smell, it has savory/bitter flavors. Food-friendly (in my case lamb youvetsi).

After an earlier bottle of this may have been off, this one was compelling. Lovely yeast, baked bread aromas, mixed with florals. Light bubbles. Long finish, superb balance, great wine, esp. for the price!

Excellent bottle despite a partially raised cork and even a tiny bit of seepage. Very elegant, multi-layered aromas, superb texture (the Fisch-Rayer 10 year review is spot on). Again for me the 2011 vintage is turning out some unexpected pleasures. I should have more of this very fine producer in the cellar!
