Veneto, ItalyThe water-bottle, look-alike comes out of Sicily with an artificial cork hidden beneath its plastic screw top. The nose is warm with plummy, peppery, floral fruit notes. It is softer and cleaner than the previous version with more floral, meaty, black fruit flavours. A solid, everyday, barbecue red.Tasted: 18 April 2008Tasted by: Prices:
Veneto, ItalyThe glass water-bottle look-alike has an artificial cork hidden beneath the plastic screw top. Meaty, rootsy, plum, smoky, peppery, spicy nose with some wet tobacco and a bit of reduction. Soft, round, slightly tannic entry with a bit of sweetness. Plum, coffee, tobacco, mineral, gamey, rubbery flavours. Fruity with some residual sweetness but balanced with some acidity. Simple drinking style but why not just have a screw cap in and out?Tasted: 23 March 2007Tasted by: Prices:
