Wednesday, August 12, 2020 - Very much the same experience as Silton with this wine.

It is indeed sturdy and leans a bit more on fresh red fruit than on tar and roses. I found the incredibly integrated tannins to be surprisingly shy, but they peeked out from behind the vibrant deliciousness about 40 minutes after the bottle was opened. Ok value for the money... as this wine delivers the goods, if without any surprises. Considering it was a lesser vintage, I enjoyed this wine thoroughly and it paired well with the grass-fed ribeye we ate with it.

This is my first V Borgogno wine and will be curious to see how my 10,12 and 13 Sarmassa’s compare.
