Considering this is not officially a DOCG Taurasi, drinks really well out of the gate, and inspires revelry at the table with great food and company, what better name for the wine. 2021 was an exceptional but small vintage in Taurasi, making this one of the best wines of the vintage to be released thus far.My Tasting Note: Deep ruby red core, vibrant red edges, almost opaque. The nose rises from the glass easily with primary and fresh red, dark red and black fruits like cherry, elderberry, and raspberry, (this added currants on day 2 and settled in nicely) that with air give way to subtle spice and savory, subtle chalk notes (mineral component), and more pronounced violets and lavender. The palate is med+ to full bodied, it wears its 15% abv really well, not a hair out of place. Excellent acidity buttresses all that fruit
