Really a mind expanding wine. Would never have guessed Aglianico or 2008 or 15%. Quite herby and earthy but with some core of fruit too - long finish with good acid. Lovely mouthfeel as well. And a great pairing with Marcella Hazan’s long cooked bolognese. — 2 years ago
Nose has a bit of poop. Mostly blows off with air.
Palate is grippy blackberry fruit. Quite young.
Let’s see where this goes
As it opens sort of an Aglianico version of good dolcetto. Sweet fruit. Great spice. Not super complex. — 4 years ago
Fantastic. Such a solid red. Approachable. Bright with berry but with that volcanic edge. — 8 months ago
A really nice full bodied wine. Mellowed with the evening. Mineral and deep red cherry. Great deal! — 2 years ago
Nose is spice and green pepper. Pepper goes away with air. Replaced by black pepper.
Palate is huge hit of spice. Incredibly fresh hand crushed wild blackberries. Super delicious. Amazing silky texture. Spice integrates with air. Amazing entry level wine. More perfect mid season cherry with air. Cherry pit as well.
Long cherry finish. — 4 years ago

L'odore è come un tramonto nella gola delle montagne, e il sapore è come la carezza del vento marino costiero. L'ho provato solo un po 'finora. Cosa succederà quando berrò un paio di bicchieri di questo meraviglioso vino? Sono entusiasta, anche se sospetto che sia tutto perché sono di ottimo umore. ❤️ — 4 years ago

Gorgeous vintage of this. Honeyed nose with superb sea air minerality. Palate is rich and dense with terrific shape and texture. Intense minerality and great concentration. Tactile depth. Needs some air and that 14.5% does peek through which is not thrilling me. Let’s see. — 2 days ago
