100% Prugnolo Gentile. Very dark, impenetrable ruby already starting to get lighter at the rim. International nose of posh oak and rich fruit. Attractive austerity on the palate gives it more personality. Certainly not alcoholic. Fruit closes up on a dry finish, begging for more time in the bottle. (WS)
