(at Decanter's May 2017 issue Latest release Barbera d'Asti Panel Tasting, 08 Feb 2017)
Drinking Window: 2018 - 2022
Hot and peppery with heady lifted cherry notes, this wine is extracted and powerful. There is a gamey element to the black forest gateaux fruits, and assertive oak flavours give complex winter spice notes.
