Open the bottle and you quickly notice a slightly hot sangio fragrance, but there's new green peppers, licorice, tar and dark fruit. The initial taste is nicely complex and shows promise. Gave it a couple hours of air and the alcohol calms down and a nice balance develops. Great with strong cheese before dinner and better still with pasta and red sauce. The mouth drying finish was just right.
