Tuesday, September 19, 2006 - Zachys Icons of Italy Tasting (Zachys): Gorgeous, ethereal nose. Elegant red fruit and limestone, with a touch of cinnamon or nutmeg.

On the palate, this is a tannic monster. Everything is in perfect balance and harmony, with the striking exception of the tannins. Beautiful aromatics, great bright red fruit, a touch of cedar, some great acids. Needs many, many years. Probably would give this a low-90's score based on this showing but given how young it is I have difficulty knowing.
