Second bottle - tasting after the first bottle was tainted. Ruby coloration. With typical Sangiovese translucency. On the nose, cherry, strawberry, vanilla. On the palate, cherry, strawberry, rich and full bodied. Hints of balsamic, espresso and chocolate and a long layered finish with espresso and dark chocolate. Very long finish. — a year ago
Last night. Possibly wine of night though 2013 avignonesi nobile grande annati very close. Much better than the good 2013 fortuna brunello. Cherry tobacco very balanced and delicious. — 3 years ago
From 0,375l.
So unique, so rare. Equally thick, concentrated and complex.
What a privilege to savour this elixir.
Dark nuances of dried fruit (dates, raisins), mocha, spicebox, orange marmelade, earlgrey tea and honeysuckle.
Endless finish....
Heartwarming and humbling...

Single vineyard. Vino nobile di Montepulciano. Dark ruby coloration with translucency common to Sangiovese wines. On the nose, florals, dark berries and black cherry with sweet spices. On the palate, rich and complex, currants and cherry and the fruit side giving way to earthiness and minerality, vanilla, with some herbs and rose petal. Tannins are still strong but balanced. Elegant and complex wine with a long layered finish. 240 euros from the winery. — 2 years ago

メルローらしいプラムのニュアンス。
フワッとやわらいながらもコーヒーやチョコレート、ミント、ピーマン、甘草、スモーキー。
2018は強さが全面に出てたけど、19は調和がテーマなのかな。濃さはあれど、ギスギスしたところがなくていい。 — 2 years ago

Cherry-juice, unripe black currants, Garrigue, bitter chocolate, really elegant and refined with tight tannins, juicy acidity and chalky minerals on the youthful finish. — 10 years ago
