Good full dark red. Showy aromas of ripe black cherry, violet and licorice, plus a healthy dose of vanilla. Juicy and gripping in the mouth but less precise and harmonious currently than the 2014 Arbore, displaying a glyceral mouthfeel and a confected quality that I find fatiguing. Currently dominated by a vanilla and strawberry-rhubarb pie quality and a strong tannin/acid spine, both of which will require time to resolve

Country: Italy

It isn't difficult to understand why Italy is famed not just for the quality of its wines, but also for the vast variety and range of characteristics found in the wines there. The terrain of the country varies wildly, from the lush rolling green hills and valley of Tuscany, to the sun drenched rocky coasts of Sicily, the mountainous and alpine regions of the north, and the marshy lowlands of the east. Italy really does have a little bit of everything. Combine this huge range of landscapes with an almost perfect climate for grape cultivation, and you have a country seemingly designed for viticultural excellence. The results speak for themselves, and it is clear to see that wine has become an inseparable part of Italian culture as a result of its abundance and brilliance. Each village, city and region has a local wine perfectly matched with the cuisine of the area, and not an evening passes without the vast majority of Italian families raising a glass of locally sourced wine with pride and pleasure.
