Monday, March 18, 2024 - Outclassed by the 2016 Ardanza Riserva last night. But there would have been far more appeal on its own. I would say it was not a good matchup even though it was a perfectly logical choice and plan. Here we get far more candy like feel and less sexiness that the Ardanza shows. We are almost childlike in exaggerated aromas of ripe red fruit, a vain of balsamic, and voluptuous oak. All in all it works well, but comes across a bit ripe and empty at at the same time. I couldn't finish my glass, so it sat on the kitchen counter...I am going to hold off for a year at least.
