Wednesday, March 4, 2015 - Tasted at a Wine Tasting lunch w Winemaker Aldo. Wow. Elegance w strength. Floral w a little sweet cherry on the nose. Also caught a touch of herb. Almost alfalfa like. On the palate..nothing but pleasure. Sweet and tart cherry and then Bang...dusty, very fine tannins that sucked my cheeks off, but in a pleasurable way. Probably the most refined I have encountered. What a finish. What a pleasure.
