From magnum. Italian rustic , muted fruit, decent mouth feel that handled pollo diavolo well. Drank alone the wine would not have been rated as high. Paired well with multiple Italian dishes

Tasted for 4 days. Deep and dark, opaque with a half inch pour. Tasty, good acid bite, delicious red and black cherry fruit, supportive tannin, and excellent concentration.

N. Compact, oil-paint, blackberry (fruit, green/leaves, a bit wood), elegant. T. Elegant cool notes, long finish, balanced, blue notes (cool, juniper), alcohol
Astonishing freshness for this wine, created for ad hoc taste in 2006 (+4 at max), I have to admit that I like the sexyness of the wine. Chapeau!
Still, this is an international wine, made with international grapes, for an international auditorium, consulted by a flying winemaker, I guess. Michel, is that you? :)

Very good when chilled a bit. Maybe 18 degrees. Paired well with a meaty pizza after being open for the 2nd day.
