Interesting and tasty red from Pulgia, not sure where obtained. Dark Ruby. Forest, mushroom and ripe dark fruits, keep one sniffing. minerals and acids in balance with almost velvety coating on palate. Long lingering finish. Wonder how it tastes when young. Found previous notes, AA18 red blend Predominantly Nero di Troia with Montepulciano per wine searcher. Last bottle.

Nice balanced red with ripe red fruits and forest notes, medium body but faded on finish. Might be heading downhill for a 26 year old. Went well with red sauced pasta. AA18. From Puglia and 70% Nero di Troia and 30% Montepulciano. New to me
