Range of flavors, from soft vibrant
cherry, through soften oaken layers, this opens lushly over an hour. Great through the bottle. Nice job, not sure of long term ageability, but leaving that to Sojourn's more sophisticated Cabs!

Did not decant, drank from opening through one hour. Beautiful dark blackberry and coffee notes, leather and still a tannic back that is evolving. Not as rustic as some aglianocos can be. No sediment. Loved every sip, was outstanding with rigatoni carbonara and short rib. Great now and a few more years.

Still evolving, rich with great structure, needs min 1 hour decanting.
