Tasting Notes |
---|
Fair to say, one thing many Italian wines do not lack is character. Or soul, for want of a much better word. Dark fruit, pepper, violet, dried herb - all those dark and rustic Italianate things that make such wines so appealing, it has. It's medium to full bodied, chewy and earthy, full of fruit - volume without sweetness - with a balanced core of acidity. Love the long gravelly finish. Savoury, rustic, charismatic and, finances permitting, affordable. Fair to say I'm a big fan of this. Drink: 2012-2018. Score - 92. (Gary Walsh, winefront.com.au, Feb. 13, 2012)
