Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, May 18, 2016 - At Coco Pazzo in Chicago, great list of Italian wines, most are on the young side (and expensive), but very extensive. Splash decanted, drank over an hour

Deep purple color. Nose of black fruits, violets. Palate is rich blackberry, plum, blue fruits, raisin and vanilla oak. Full bodied, long finish. Has a shade of sweetness on back palate

This is a hedonistic wine with a long life ahead of it. More expressive than I thought it would be at this stage. Still very young, will continue to evolve for some time but good now if you must open it...would wait another 5 years and should drink 20+ past that.
