Italian wine - different regions, different characteristics.

ruby.plum cherry w pepper spicy.acidic and tanin ++. Will need a few more years to fully mature/ enjoy. Super Tuscan w can sab/merlot/canlb franc and petit verdot

Salento area.compared to Manduria, less intense..full bodied, red cherry, strawberry, jammy w vanilla ( prob fr oak). Tanin n acid moderate..

Fr Maduria, intense riped black cherry/ plum. Acidic / tanin ++w long finished. Should have kept it for a few years for it to fully developed.

Another Italian varietal - negroamaro. Tasted this wine in Seoul departmental store sales.impressed

such an elegant barbaresco with tertiary aroma developing

Di Manduria Primitivo, full bodied, red fruits/ plum, long finish.always enjoy this varietal after a few days of Bordeaux 

educational to have different regions to compare

different regions, different experience. I like

This is beautiful. So elegant yet complex. Can keep a few more years for it's full potential to develop.

2nd wine of Luce. Super Tuscan.one of my favorites. Esp 2018 vintage.
