Big rustic tannins. This needs time. Next after 2026. Dried cherry. Medium bodied. Some earth as well. Needs more time. But really nice gamey flavors. More mushroom on day two.

This is really starting to hit its sweet spot. Strawberries with a slight floral touch on the nose then bright red fruit, dusty tannins and some minerals and a touch of green apples on the pallet. Good mouthfeel and long finish. 15 minute decant. Really nice wine that is drinking very well. 93+ would buy again.

4 hour decant. Very smooth and well integrated tannins. A little light for a reserva. Nice mouthfeel, kind of dusty. Good finish. Solid but not overly complex brunello. Good QPR at 40$. Well liked by everyone in the group.

Nose The wine is developing and exhibits medium intensity with aromas of rose petal, red cherry, raspberry, cranberry, red plum, bell pepper, leather, and mushroom.
Palate The wine is dry with a medium body, high acidity, high tannins, high alcohol, and exhibits pronounced flavors of red cherry, raspberry, red plum, black pepper, vanilla, and liquorice with a long finish.
Conclusion The quality of the wine is good. It is still developing and its structure will allow it to age nicely, but it can be enjoyed now. Life and wine are good!

Lots of leather, earth and spice. Strawberries, and hard candy, slightly tannic. Good mouthfeel and finish. I would say that this is just entering its drinking window. Solid wine.

PNP - likely would have benefitted from a nice decant. Lots of oak and tannin, not much finesse on the palate. Nose lacking.
