orange and hazelnut biscotti aromas. there's an underlay of shoe polish that just gets my saliva glands fire'd up. beguiling aromas, like being caught in a whirlpool. give me this with a plain cheesecake please. OUTSTANDING

next to 2020 Selvapiana Bucerchiale. Medium garnet color. earthy aromas. dried cherry and a little vitamin aroma. this is day 2 and the lift if extra-ordinary. Sat next to Bianca Contini Bonacossi last evening at dinner, and I felt like we could have been sitting at an afternoon baseball game, so pleasant to talk to. With just a little bit of time, the vitamin subsides...a touch coconut oil to the aroma?? w/ licorice. All in all, extremely harmonious aromas, loads of complexity.
palate shows the 12 yrs of maturity that the aromas do not. Medium minus tannin, medium plus acidity. Gonna have to start stuffing some of these wines away...
lots of time ahead of it, this is still way shy of mid-life. drink to 2045+
