Tasting notes

Brick-red colour. Nose shows leather, ripe fruits, strawberries, and tar. Some fine high notes. Medium bodied and structured Ciro in the mouth. Fruit seems quite mature. A little oxidative style. Very leathery and earthy fruit. Almost too much. A little dirty style. Medium acidity and some tannins in the back. Good structure. Highly traditional wine.
