Tuesday, December 9, 2014 - no decant. carmine w/garnet highlights; dried cherry preserves, brown spices & wild herbal quality aromatics; med+ weight; a touch more ripe-ish at 5 years than this has been typically, w/herb-inflected sour cherries & cranberry-red apple confiture, broad & earthy palate, still taut, but acids & tannins are low-keyed & agreeable. maybe not as broad a drinking window as usual, but still a few years from optimal drinking. (1/6)

local shiitake & fennel sausage pizza; celery, radicchio & escarole heart salad w/medjool dates & shaved pecorino
