Tasted blind. Great nose of red plums, mulberry, violets, and a great mineral component. On the palate, plums, blackberry, almond. Great grip and nice acidity complete the package. Guessed Italian but no idea on region, surprised to see a Taurasi when unveiled.

Bought in 1991 at Vinattiere Zanobini, Via Sant'Antonia, Florence for a "prezzo vecchio". Deep, warm, calm, classical, plummy fruit, nuts, gunpowder, game, ripe and harmonious; structured, needs a bit of time to show its fleshy, rounded and polished side; very good length, plums and mulberries, nuts, port and bitters. Wonderful wine for Lit 9,900!
