Exactly what I wanted
Grabbed it on a recommendation from the shop and I am glad I did. The finish is much longer than I expected.

Smoke, black cherry, iron. Bright acidity keeps it lively through the meal. The tannin is firm and needs food or air.

From the importer
Why we buy this one.
Sulfur-rich volcanic tufo, quarried under the village and planted on top of it. A slow, cool maceration to protect the aromatics, then aged on lees for texture. A wine that rewards a decanter and a little patience.

Not a shy wine — give it twenty minutes in a decanter and it opens right up.

Perfect with Sunday dinner
Paired it with a slow-cooked ragù and it was close to perfect. Will be reordering by the case.
