YOUNG - still needs time. More of an auslese than a spat. Rich, with peach and apricot fighting through pineapple and mango. Long finish. great acidity. Very good now but will improve.

fully mature. Sweet spices, forest/mushrooms, some red fruit on the nose. Masculine wine with good acidity. Mainly secondary in the mid - with tea and spices and some cherry. medium finish. very smooth. i liked this a lot.

my WOTN. true cab nose - pencil, some mint, ripe rich fruit. Young in the middle. resolved but not losing its grip. plum and currant. some leather as well. just a pleasure to drink!

Rich vanilla, ripe notes. powerful fruit. spices coming in with more time. red and black fruit dominating the middle. with time more soy. long finish. young wine indeed and more fruit than i expected. Rustic but well balanced.

Very modern on the nose. had to go back and make sure i poured the right wine... ripe and vanilla dominate. in the middle there are signs of sangiovese - with cherry notes and good acidity. very ripe. tannins are there but not distracting. Perhaps awkward stage?

Maybe i will like it more tomorrow? Ripe, lots of oak, lacking acidity with a lot of fruit in the mid but woody and not refreshing on the finish. Just not my cup of tea.

honey, orange, some apricot. rich but good middle. touch soft on finish. very pleasant.
