The 2015 MunJebel Rosso is a wonderful entry into these outstanding wines from Frank Cornelissen. This is 100% Nerello Mascalese from 60+ year old vines, and comes from a variety of different crus including Chiusa Spagnolo, Monte Colla, Porcaria, Barbabecchi, as well as other designated vineyards (Rampante, Piano Daini and Crasà). It has a gorgeous nose with aromas of dark cherries and raspberries woven together with dried herb, crushed stones, and fresh cut flowers. This is elegant and focused, with a vibrant core of fresh red fruit and mineral streaks across the palate. All of the beautiful flavors come together seamlessly in the vivid finish. This wine is showing well today and will continue to evolve over the next 8-10 years. (Best 2016-2024) - November, 2016 (MD)
