It's only wine but I like it

Maturing, complex aglianico with all sorts of interesting flavours ranging from dried red fruits, leather, and prunes. Firmly structured along with palate clensiing acidity. Long finishing with pleasant tartness. I can see that this would be a polarizing wine for many but I really enjoyed this. Ceratinly no catering to modern tastes here and, for that, I am grateful. Drink now or can hold a few more years. Tasted July 2014.

I'm not sure what to say here, but I tried 3 different bottles and they were as far as I could tell corked. All three tasted different (one was exceptionally - rinse your mouth out - bad).

Perhaps this is the way the wine is supposed to taste like, and if so, my rating stands. Or maybe it they received a really bad lot of corks tainted with TCA.
