Medium garnet colour, with masses of sediment! Medium intensity on the nose. Some dried red fruit aromoas of cranberry and redcurrant with a delicate leafy floral lift to it. Also showing leather, smoke and tar. Very complex nose, but lacking a bit of vibrancy, intensity or freshness? Medium (almost light) bodied and medium+ acidicy. Tertiary aromas of tar, tobacco, leather, liquorice, tea leaves are dominant. Lovely smooth, integrated texture. Very good but I think this is drinking now and won't get any better.

Early Jan 2012: popped and poured; pale black brown color; started off with nice black and red berries; but what’s that? phew, rotten chicken soup! three hours later: the rotten chicken has flown away (can a chicken really fly?) and left a slightly drinkable, but not enjoyable red wine (60 points).
80 $ down the drain!

Da magnum. Bocca tagliata a metà e acida, naso molto mentolato. Si sente che è nebbiolo ma l'avrei messo più verso la bussia.
