Bright cassis and violet aromatics give way to a surprisingly austere palate dominated by chalky minerality and firm acidity. Red cherry struggles against the wine's structural backbone, while a hint of sweetness emerges on the finish. This feels like an off vintage for Il Mimo. Missing the charm and approachability that typically defines this bottling.
