Stick to my last tasting note. Still vibrant and just slowly some tertiary notes and faint truffles evolve. Will graciously age for at least another decade.

Rich ripe cherry-dominated fruit, with licorice and dried floral notes. Still very tannic, but enough acidity to keep it refreshing. So much sediment I had to decant twice.

Excellent aglianico from this remote region. The bouquet convinces with black cherries and other dark fruit but also pencil shavings and minerality. This is not for the faint hearted, as the tannins are still present and a vibrant acidity keeps the wine quite refreshing. Medium to long finish with so much going on, I believe it can easily handle 1-2 more decades of further cellaring.

Initially too tannic and i thought i should have waited another year or two, but after an hour (w/o decanting) became surprisingly easy-going, light-medium body. Not what i was expecting but enjoyable and interesting enough.
