Last and best bottle, developed better than I have expected. Plum and leather, alcohol is better integrated now, smooth tannin, full bodied, medium acidity and warm medium to long finish. Will most probably not further improve, better to drink the last bottles soon.

Typical cannonau, has enough acidity to be not rustic, but the high alcohol level reduces the overall impression and brings too much heat to the palate. Best to drink with a tasty meal. Drink within the next two years.

This wine has a nose of strawberries, pepper, cinnamon, and oak. It is light bodied with a medium finish, yet good tasting. The tannins are well integrated and it is nice.
