Slow Wine 2014 Tasting (Spiaggia - Chicago IL): Tasting, brief note. Lots of spice, showcasing clove and black pepper with robust, rustic fruit. Good energy and good overall. I'd suspect it best on the young side.

Medium red color with medium transparency. Aromas of blackberry, spice, fennel, and flowers. Palate has spicy, floral, blackberry and pomegranate flavors with a slightly coarse, smoky, tannic finish that is medium in length. This doesn't have the lip-smacking character that the 2011 did, but should integrate with some time in the bottle. Drink or hold for 6-9 months for integration.

Surprisingly light, color did not match the darker, spicy aroma but was well balance and easy to drink. Would be a good red aperitif.

Light ruby color. Interesting nose of sweet rosemary and dusty wild strawberry. Medium bodied, delicate and friendly on the palate.
