A really nice wine showing its age well. Rustic and layered with dust, leather, dark red fruit and smoke. Tannic but balanced with great structure. Nice value at $15.

Game meat, leather, iron, ash. Not fruity. Very serious stuff. Mouth coating tannin. Will improve with age. Fruit comes into play after decanting. Sour blackberry, black currant.

From the cellar, we had to bring out the Gudarrà Aglianico del Vulture 2008. Mature black fruits, raisin, dried fig, cooked plum. This is a great value wine, and you get a lot of what the Vulture area can offer for not a lot of money.

Deep red, nose of mocha, herbs; dark fruit and a hint of coffee in sleek mouthfeel, acids are high for a vibrant wine that pairs well with cheese ravioli. Aeration softens and deepens to a rich sweetness. Drinking nicely now, a lovely persistent and perfumed finish, won't get much better so drink up, pretty good value.

Very smooth for a medium body red like this one. The hints of cherry and spices are very well balanced.
