February 2, 2018 - Damilano Single Vineyards (Ai Fiori (Langham Hotel on 5th Ave)): The crown jewel of the single vineyards from what I could tell. Interesting because early in my notes I had guessed a sandy soil vineyard and that is indeed what this is. 60 year old vines. Marked as a vineyard that produces wine that is drinkable quickly - the type of bottles you should be able to pnp. This is also herbal with some red fruits. There's a lovely elegance and structure to it. Young and still building character. Not at the level of the 2004 we had alongside which was just singing, but with potential. Nice acidity.

Still has some fruit and not totally tertiary, but has some interest as well and not tight and bright. Most other wines I prefer older, but here I think you can easily get to a point where you need a multi hour decant and then there is greatness. Tonight we had a 79 barolo which was decanted for 4 hours and honestly needed more.
