From close planted vines on terra rossa soil, this clearly Rhône-inspired wine is a little reductive at first, but the barnyard notes blow off with time, replaced with ripe plum, berry, dried mint, oregano and tar. The oak is present but softly spoken. In the mouth, it shows a lovely tang of acidity and juicy fruit, but the tannins are on the lean and mean side, drying at the finish. Overall, this feels unforced and allowed to express both fruit and site. It's drinking well now but should keep until 2025.
