  Bottiglia aperta 2 ore prima, no decanter - temp.16 ° cent.
  
  Di colore rosso rubino, unghia aranciata, impenetrabile, denso.
  Al naso schietto, fine, complesso, prevalgono aromi terziari, viola passita, nocciola tostata, terra, fico maturo, mandorla, tabacco, confettura mora di rovo, tabacco, chiodi di garofano, ginepro, macchia mediterranea.
  Di medio corpo, presente lieve acidità, sapido, tannini risolti, finale persistente.
  
  La beva é ancora piacevole ma il vino é già oltre la fase massima di maturazione.
  
  Ho apprezzato meglio il vino il 2° e 3° giorno.
  
  Il carignano proveniente da vecchie viti é molto lento a esprimersi.
  
  Abbinamento, anatra in tegame in bianco.

  Very dull almost prune color in the glass. Slight chemical note on the nose. Very little fruit on introduction—maybe the slightest suggestion of raisin but without any sugar. Lots of earthiness. Some mushroomy fungal things. No tannin to speak of and, similarly, very little acidity. An OK wine, but lack of acid makes it a bit boring.

  Fruity easy drinking lunch wine. Nothing special but easy to drink for lunch.

  Fruity, basic, herbal notes. Fine enough.
