  November 10, 2021 - Nearly 3.5 years after the prior: savory dark fruit, with a bare suggestion of Balsamic. Elegant, with lovely acidity. Very enjoyable over three nights

I was thinking of serving this in a wine tasting experience fundraiser for Wounded Warrior Project through work, and your note confirmed it would be a good choice to serve blind, especially for those who need a little old world exposure.
  
  Cheers!

And yet it’s really a “food wine” (with lovely acidity) — and so in a general tasting, especially if surrounded by other more “dramatic” New World creatures, I’d hope it doesn’t become lost? — Jake

I am strictly an old world drinker (who loves the acidity!), and this wine will be the first or second served in the red lineup (after 5 whites) to help it not get lost. The tasting is organized where people taste and silently fill out a wine journal that I provide. After they complete tasting notes we discuss each wine. It drags things out but helps a little with the tasting fatigue.
  
  Thanks again for confirming this as a great option. Looking forward to sharing others feedback on this wine.
  
  Cheers and have a great weekend.
