This Bordeaux-style blend from a boutique winery in the Veneto holds all the style you’d expect from painstaking natural winemaking. Austere and reserved in its youth, the decade-plus aging that this Rosso (a blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon touched with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot) has mellowed it, softened its tannic edges, integrated its cassis and smoke notes, and elicited its tertiary flavors. This is one aromatic wine that drinks like a walk through the woods on a cold autumn day—smoke, leather, underbrush, and lushness make this wine a dream. Drinking now.
