This is a wine that had made history and not just for the appellation but also the Marche region being the first wine from the region to get a top “Three Glasses” rating. The color is a full, dark and intact garnet while the aroma alternates with notes of incense that, with breathing, become those of talcum and cocoa beans on a bed of dried flowers (violet and even gorse). The mouthfeel is relaxed and expansive without any cracks and while it may have lost some of its territorial traits it remains a great wine. The finish is subtle yet merits respect for being slow and deep with notes of dried flowers and leather.
