Dark, blue fruit in the nose with some forresty notes as well. A sip reveals the great intensity of blueberry and bramble with some plum mixing in. This aglianico wine succeeds in combining dense intensity with elegance. Very aromatic, floral, fresh and still deep in its flavours. An autumnal note manages to come through towards the finish. Quite complex indeed. And I haven't even mentioned the gripping tannins yet that top it off.

Elena Fucci tasting at Renegade Wines in Santa Barbara: Slightly lighter in color. Aromas and flavors of wild herbs, red berry, dried florals, musk and leather. Very savory on the palate, crunchy red fruit. Firm and well-framed, sharper structure, finishing with savory depth.

Hold this for a while. Took 4+ hours for the reductive notes to blow off. Very closed right now.

A really fresh and uptoned version if AdV. Backbeats of leather nicely fill the gaps.

Deep burgundy color. Rich, scents of cherries, earth, plums. Nice mouth filling with a long finish. Would cellar very well.
