Great stuff here. Earth and sweet fruit. Like a piece of licorice and chocolate wrapped in earth. Gripping tannins.

Minty nose at first. Crushed berry in dry sand mouth feel followed by a blossoming of field herbs, rose hip, & tart kiln dried cherries. Could have used another year in the bottle...

Unlike any wine I’ve had before. I don’t have much experience with pre-phylloxera vines. Aromatics jump out of the glass with smoked moss and πŸŒ‹πŸŒ‹πŸŒ‹πŸŒ‹πŸŒ‹. This austere wine on the pallet gives off flavors of berry on the breeze and a dusty Sicilian road. Tannins are extremely silky. Long finish that is balanced like a high wire acrobat.

Just a wee taste. Pretty and interesting. The nose reminded me of amari, herbaceous and sweet-spiced. Stiff tannins and mellow acidity. All around lovely.
