Very pure and powerful, lots of lenght, elegance, very balanced with lots of fruit, great structure, very drinkable already, but with a lot of potential

Lay & Wheeler Italy Growers' Tasting: Brief notes: Red flowers on the nose. It has a lovely purity of fruit and a touch of sweet spices. Grip and power but freshness from the great acidity. Huge length.

Second bottle of this wine and considerably better than the first. Decanted 2 hours and enjoyed with pasta meatballs.
Not powerful or "big" but a real presence. Cherry ( ubiquitous) and quite fresh red fruit are the most obvious traits, but it does mellow into really deep Chianti-like flavours. I was wrong in my assessment about my first encounter , because this is pretty and refined and delicate. These are three words I would not have used first time around. Was I wrong ? Probably. This wine is much better than I first thought.
