I never thought I would say this, but this wine is tart and bitter with a dry finish and I love it. Black cherry and judicious oak add balance and pleasure. I don't usually like Syrah mixed with Bordeaux blends but this has enough lift and dust to taste Italian. Delicious.

Very nice blend of Syrah, Merlot, and Cabernet with big bursts of fruit. Nose of black pepper and a hint of grassy meadow/forest floor. Palate is bold and intense with flavors of black cherry and cranberry. Tannins are strong enough to complete the overall balance.

Tasty. Earth, mineral, briar and dark fruit. Speaks Italian on the finish.

Keep it cellared to allow runway to balance.
