After a couple of less than outstanding wines, this one made it all worthwhile. A blend of Nebbiolo, Cabernet, Merlot, and Barbera, this is a very dark garnet color with a knock-out aromas of earth, truffle, leather, tobacco, plum, and red fruit. Nice and silky texture and great finish. Drank fantastic alongside homemade pizza with fresh basil, mozzarella, and salami, as well as Arugula salad with manchego shavings. Great food wine. Tannins are soft and this is definitely approachable right now without any decanting.
