Very nice example of the region. It is made in organic style from the best parcels of the winemaker. The weine definetelly needs time to air to show the proper animal and spicy nose. Decanting is a must as the wine changes every minute in a glass. I would say currently is at the peak of bottle maturity, which makes it very nicely drinkable and structured.
