I think the highest score I can give a Paolo Bea Pagliaro wine is a 92 - the style and my tastes set the potential at 92. And this bottle showed as well as I think it could.
Fire Tower restaurant (Blackberry Mountain, TN): First time trying this producer/wine and absolutely loved it. Powerful wild berries and bramble. A food wine that begs for some rare red meat with some spice and pepper.

I certainly understand why this wine isn't for everyone but I'm quite passionate about it especially in the '15 vintage. This wine is absolutely alive with great energy and verve. Underneath the intense acidity is pure and deep dark cherry fruit with strong notes of iodine, underbrush, cherry liquor and the perfect touch of animal fur.

Heavy, sedimented. Bottle was flawed, not corked but not fresh. Raisened.
