Still dark purple ruby, this has an intriguing nose of soy sauce, celery salt, baked dark fruit, sun dried tomato, and black marker. Concentrated and dense on the palate with grippy, sticky tannin and flavours of dark berries, tamarind paste, cooking spice, black olive, rosemary/sage herbs and leather. Old world Italian that after five years old it could still use some time, but very enjoyable and worth picking up for the cellar.

This has licorice, smoke, tar, dark fruit and leather on the nose. With heavy, gripping tannins, good acid and ripe fruit and spice on the palate this is a nice, big Italian red.
