Ripe and expressive on the nose, with aromas of blackberry, plum kirsch, bramble and cedar. The palate is full and extracted, but the acids are prevalent and there is a good core of grippy tannins. Black fruit and mocha flavours, with wilder notes of garrigue and underbrush. This is a structured wine – give it some air before serving, at cellar temperature, with marinated hanger steak, cured Prosciutto di San Daniele or hearty lamb stew.
