Rubino carico luminoso, spezie e note vegetali accompagnate da una fragola matura, bocca tannino fitto, fresco e scattante con cenni vegetali e ritorni fruttati. Ancora molto giovane.

Double decanted to remove a little sediment, was greeted with a strawberry nose and a gentle haunting parfum of red clay and iron/chinese spicebox flavours, taste lingers on and on.

At the time this was opened, there was a question as to whether or not it was just too young, flawed, or just not the best to begin with. The more I think about this, the more I think it is probably a combination of number 1 and number 3. I do not believe this bottle was flawed. Nose was sweet young plum. Entry was darker black fruits with some ash. The middle had a little bit of a stewed kind of character, which is the base around people saying it was potentially cooked. The finish was a little bit flat and blah. A little bit of herb, a little bit of black cherry, anise. Very acidic. Out of balance. This was not mine, but if I had a few of these, I would let them sit for about 3 or 4 years before trying again.

Maybe not as giving as others from this wonderful maker in this lovely vintage. Not faulty, just a bit lean (to my taste). Will try another soon.

Amazing, hedonistic, haunting, barnyard, red fruit, strawberries, quite tannic, each sip is asking for more.
