  A very special type of red that initially reminds me of an Amarone on the nose, with very ripe (overripe) grapes but also with a hint of something medicinal and oak. On the palate it's more of the almost jammy juice with more oak that I would say are of good quality. Plum is present. It goes between an American over extracted wine and Brunello with it's characteristic oakiness (that I sometimes find sweet).
  
  The finish is none of the above. The tannins are in the back seat, itäs the acid that is command here. Savory maybe?
  
  A very interesting wine, and actually a good one, if combined with butter based sauce and red meat (which I had).
