Fruit on nose but lots of leather and tobacco on the palate. Needs food but sufficient beforehand

Blackberry, spice: nutmeg, cocoa. Underbrush/bramble. Med+ acid, med+ tannins. Supple and not standoffish at all.

Tremendously gulpable Aglianico...not something you can say about most wines from this massively grape. Ash, minerals, popping-ripe black currants, cracking acidity, reasonably firm tannins.

Dry but still sweet. Dark cherry with notes of other bright fruit notes. Don’t be fooled, this is one kickass wine.
