In the immortal words of Yoda! "Drink me you will!" My 1st Nerello Mascalese! The wine gods put this baby together! Just like Barolo the appearance is deceptively pale. Incredible perfume, complex, layered, fragrant, savoury. Delivering real personality on the palate. So much Yumminess. Wicked, edgy yet refined tannin! Vino that will make your heart race!

Well balanced but a bit less expressive than I expected. Got overwhelmed by spicy pizza from Pete's.

Difficult vintage. Live this producer, prefer other vintages. Fruit too dilute.

Lots of fruit with a sense of volcanos somewhere in the terroir. Yummy good.
