Tasting Notes
From one of the great vineyards in La Morra, given Grange-like quantities of new oak, though as my Mum always used to say 'There's someone for everyone. " Lavish spicy sawn cedar oak, sage and vanilla, red fruits, some rosy perfume in there too. Medium bodied, drag of wood tannin in with the grape tannin, lending a slightly splintery feel as a young wine, though the fruit in with it is perfumed and lively, I just wish I could see it more clearly. Savoury and tobacco-laced finish of good length, with the crunch of tannin on the finish. It has its good parts, but feels too dry and extracted to me. 89+ Points - Gary Walsh
