Strong wine, nicely done by Sabastiani. Nose inviting, ran it through a venturi after a taste and it was perfect. Almost forgot it wasn't Italian. I only have one more of these in storage, but will wait a few more years to before drinking that

A beautiful flavor. Very rich and jammy. Once it opened up there were touches of berry and sweetness but not overly sweet. Even from the first sip you could feel the texture and it was an outstanding bottle.

Paired well with a meaty tomato sauce. Medium tannins that smoothed out quickly. The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle. The body is medium. The wine finishes medium.

Day 1 - Decanted for 2 hours, and still a bit of a flavorful fruit bomb. Tasted a lot of fruit (cranberry, strawberry and blueberry). On Day 2 the wine was smoother and tasted better. The fruit was fine but you could also taste some spice. Overall a good wine.

Very bold, delicious, opens up awesome, maybe too much after an hour and 1/2
