Needs an hour decant.

Nose : faded dried lilacs. A beautiful old woman selling books in the market. Profound poetry written on faded ink and read from withered pages. A tinge of earth.

Palate: so silky. Fleeting but in a persistent way. Nothing obvious or dramatic. Balance. An experience more than an event.

For me, a lover who jilted me. But still a love I remember fondly.

Burgundy. This could only be burgundy.

Magnificent.

Nose is so floral. Maybe just a hint of richness underneath it.

Palate: delicious. Orchard fruits. So expansive aromatically. Almost escapes the mouth. Vibrant. Mineral. So long. Rich as it opens. Citrus fruits as it opens.

More savory with air. Crazy. A perfectness.

The finish is a fucking symphony. So long. So salty. Savory. Bright. Mineral. Jesus ! All in perfect harmony. Wow. Just wow.

Then a wine of perfection.

Think arpepe Riserva.

Think Burlotto Monvigliero.

One of the great wines of Italy. No one knows about it.

If you know. You know. Nuff said.
