The nose almost amarone-like with some dried elements, but
with tar, anise, oak and some very fine high-notes. Best on day 3 when the ripe fruit-notes had disappeared and the wine showed more
tar, anise and high notes. Very powerful and huge concentration in the mouth. Almost fat fruit in the front. Violently tannic end. The
tannins totally overpowers the alcohol here. Over the top?? Yes, of course, we are very far over the top here. I find this experiment
quite interesting. Note to self: try next bottle in 32 years and 9 months.

Deep red colour. Fine nose, hints of dark berries – dried fruits - tar, anise and fine floral high notes. Massive pinot nero in the mouth.
Violently concentrated. Lots of fruit, almost dried amarone-like feeling. Also lots of tar and anise. Complex fruit with some fine floral
notes. Tough structure. Fine acidity. Tannic end. Tough, tight and rustic feel. Different pinot nero. Very good and interesting. Not much
evolvement.
