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.

The Barolo of the south — give it a decade. 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. Spontaneous fermentation in concrete, then rested on the fine lees until spring. One of the first wines Above Wines ever imported, and still one of the best.

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.
