Dark purple color (darker than the 2019 Vespolina), lovely blueberry aromas and flavors, some underlying minerality, rich and nicely complex, longish finish, this needs more cellaring. (Apparently this is 90% Croatina, 10% Vespolina, the DOC rules require at least 85% of single varietal for label to identify the principal grape.)
