The 2012 ‘Il Dragone’ is a sensational effort, which brings a similar style as the entry level 'Baraban', but a bit more serious with more depth and complexity. Aromas of black cherries, blackberry, tobacco, spices, dusty minerals and spices burst from the glass. It shows excellent structure with polished tannins and a long finish that comes in layers. Winemaker Giovanni Zini does an incredible job keeping the purity of the fruit and displaying the characteristics of the volcanic terroir in the Colli Euganei. (Best 2015-2022) - June, 2014 (JD)
