  4/25/2023 - t.d.alexander Likes this wine:

  Pale garnet with developed, medium intensity aromas of grape jelly, black plum, black cherry, blueberry compote, clove, and cedar. It is dry, with high acid, medium minus and very rounded tannins, medium plus alcohol, and medium plus bodied with flavors of stewed plum, black cherry, cinnamon, bitter chocolate, cocoa nib, and menthol which linger for a long finish.
  
  good; drink now not suitable for more aging

  Excellent! Some bricking. Still nice cherry fruit and food-friendly acidity. Bottles continued to improve with age but probably at peak. Sad this was the last one from the case.

  Still young right now, I think. I will give at least another 1-2 years before trying another. Right now, this needs at least 1 hour decant, preferably 2, to start opening up. When it does, it is a light style but I get the classic tarry undertones and floral notes. Seems classic but not a powerhouse. It was very good with Italian fare. Could possibly improve in score with age.

  Okay, but not impressed for the money. Would not buy again.
