Beautiful rose, carnation, earth, blackberry, ripe cherry, blueberry, extinguished cigar. Great acidity, but very dry tannin - not fine-grained. Thought it was Nebbiolo, but maybe Sangiovese after all? Coffee, smoky notes, very dry, very young. Beautiful. Performing at Brunello level. A touch of mint or lemon balm. Still green, and be careful with aeration - it goes a bit thin and loses body over time, turning into unripe red apple, which makes it rougher and harder to drink.
