If one translates the name of the wine from the Latin, it means long-eared owl. Accordingly, also designed the appealing se label. The idea behind the naming was at MGM Mondo del Vino probably the association with the mysterious character of the animal. Here, however, the wine this respect is not justified. It is a cuvee of the popular grape varieties Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet. The latter two varieties are tasty forming, while the Merlot makes the wine soft. The result is a very fruity, semi-dry wine with me personally too much sweetness in the finish. In all, he has not got depth. He knows taste stand out in any second. It is thus probably too little complex for the ambitious wine drinkers. But by the half dry expansion and its uncomplicated character he is certainly contrary to those who drier, heavy red wines can not get anything. Mondo del Vino was at the often critical discussed price Mundus Vini for Producer of the Year elected in 2009. All the more sad that one is left with the Asio Otus in the dark about the vintage. The vintage and the differences between the age groups is so high that one will be deprived of an important quality feature here.
