Not at it's best, may have peaked, perhaps in the "tunnel" (if such exists) or just a not so good bottle. Day two slightly improved. Fruit a bit on the try side and the whole experience a bit one dimensional. Structure still there even if a bit on the low on acidity.

With some powerful back bone there. There was hail and cool weather at the begining but then it was perfect. Lots of beautiful fruit to that. Really pretty fruit to this. Needing some time. Loads of power here.

Violets and dried earth on nose. Med body, softer Barolo style with med plus tannins. Bottles just shipped in, possible shock is why showing a touch muted.

Tasty dark berries, earth, and floral notes on the nose and palate with well structured tannins and a moderate finish. Needs time to open up.

Has that sweet cherry perfumed style. A little bit more gutsy on the palate than I would have though but also on day two.

Lighter, but more open, and expressive, less ripe fruit. Erin notes that it smells really good. So I am having a bad tasting day.
