No formal note taken - decanted for 2h and drunk while prepping /cooking/eating. Way better after some air. Traditional , smooth/dissolved tannins, balanced and easy to drink, not withstanding the reported 15% alcohol .
Was worried about food pairing w Feliicetti fusilli with broccoli sautéed in duck fat, slow roasted duck wings/neck (duck breast saved for next day), but it worked out . (I even had a bite of home made sockeye gravlax and was not off putting)
First of 6 bottles, will try and report back on others

I forgot I coravin'd it a few months ago (doh!). Notwithstanding the less than perfect drinking conditions ( felt more tired than other bottles) it was enjoyable, especially on night 2.

PnP. No Formal note. Enjoyable and balanced even if not memorable. Good weeknight wine. TheBonnydooner review is spot on.
