Ripe and earthy, and teetering on overripe. That it’s hanging around as a basic rosso after five years is a testament to the wine, which is still kicking with blackberry flavors, firm tannins and power. Drink now.

Old, with a browning color and dry, raisiny aromas. There’s not much left here except dried red fruits and plenty of acid. It’s sharp and tastes a bit sour, and the mouthfeel seems to be thinning as we speak.
