I appreciate how this is a testable CdV. Dense fruit and herbaceous Ness from the Nero and red fruit and aromatics from the frapatto always has a layer of herbaceous nurse that I appreciate from Vintage Tire Vintage.

Strawberry and red cherry nose, hint of smoke, candy and liquorice with a crunchy bitterness and volcanic minerality at the end. A very pleasant wine with the lightness of a N Rhône Syrah and the richness of a southern Italian. 88
