Tasting notes

Deep red colour with some purplish hues. Nose shows currant, dark berries, some wood and pepper. Fullbodied and structured aglianico in the mouth. Seems highl closed and acidic right now. Opens up a little with air. Gives some hints of roses and leather. Tannic end. Give it at least 5 more years. Good potensial.

Deep red colour. Leather and cherries on the nose. Liquorice, ash and a sweet caramel-like note. Mature in the mouth. Dry mouthfeel and fruit seems faded. Some liquorice, dark fruits and hints of caramel. Medium acids. Some tannins in the back. Too old and fruit has faded and not developed. This was not what I had hoped for this wine. Drink up.
