Review: Incredible, reserved ripeness and depth already evident on the nose after one whiff, offering plum, cedar, rose hip, sandalwood, and licorice. Full-bodied with superb depth of fruit and an abundance of polished tannins that give the wine poise and grace, even though it's long and powerful. The quality of the tannins are exceptional. Sheer and refined. This comes from the center of Cannubi.
