Wednesday, December 7, 2022 - Paolo generously shared this bottle with me pre-dinner. My first time with this vintage of the wine - a great chance to taste a warm (and at time controversial) vintage. Decanted prior

Garnet color, showing some age. Nose showing dark fruit, menthol and graphite. Palate showing blackcurrant, cherry, earth notes, pencil. Very rich through the mid palate, silky and luxurious. Medium/full body, long finish.

In a great spot right now. Warm vintage turned to the advantage of delivering a full body and depth throughout. It will doubtless go for another decade plus. That said, really worth opening this now, especially if you have more than one
