#175 Aleatico

2008 Rossini Pergola Rosso Aleatico Marche

I swear I have had this wine before but things do get a bit hazy at this point.  The nose suggests that I am in for a sickly sweet experience with loads of blueberry syrup wafting from the glass.  My first sip still has me thinking blueberry... and has me waiting for the sugar...  but no! Instead this bottle hits me with a delightful curveball.  Bone dry with nice acid and just enough of the alcohol "burn".
