  Purchased a bottle at a local pizza place and brought home the remainder to sit in the cellar for a couple of days. So this has had plenty of air time.
  
  As someone else noted, it is very dry with savory fruit, dry herbs and a little spice. It has a long finish. It is quite nice, especially after aeration.

  Bright purple color, quiet nose, tart entry, clipped juice with dry herbs which opens to dry herbal spicy mid palate lacking depth. It is a Dolcetto I know but drier dusty less fruit driven which may appeal to those who like their dusty Chianti on the tart side.

  A tremendously complex and delicious wine. Notes of fragrant herbs, dark chocolate, fresh red fruits. Palate evolves with some charred herbal notes. Long and savory finish
