91 Points

Saturday, October 11, 2014 - Italy 2014, The Crush; 9/20/2014-9/29/2014 (Tuscany, Venice): Bought retail in Cortona after enjoying the 2009 normale with lunch. Euro 100. I paid for the vintage/age.
Subdued nose. Black cherry, red cherry, olive, orange peel. Too much tannin (typical riserva...). Good weight, good length. Some developmental complexity over the course of the evening. Too bad about the tannin. Fruit has probably peaked and may be on a downward slope.
