Beautiful aromas of plums and chocolate follow through to a full body, with fine tannins and a focused finish. Tangy and fresh. Better in 2015.

Medium red. High-pitched, rather cool aromas of cherry, raspberry, white tobacco, medicinal herbs, minerals and menthol. Then Quite dry and backward on the palate, with mint and herb flavor dominating. Almost Barolo-like in its medicinal character. Very young and backward Asili, displaying terrific fruit through the retronasal passage. 92+

This is rich, packed with floral, sweet cherry, strawberry, anise and a hint of menthol aromas and flavors that stand up to the dusty tannins. Elegant, offering a long and satisfying finish, with a balanced impression overall. Best from 2014 through 2025. 150 cases imported. - BS
