Balsamic herbs and cured meat define this powerfully savory expression from Dafara Galluzzo. Dark berry fruit emerges beneath the earthy intensity, while fine tannins provide structure without overwhelming. The finish turns chewy and mineral-driven, with concentrated fruit lingering through waves of umami richness. Demands cellaring through 2026.
