  Amazing on the nose when opened the btl but this is 1 or 2 years past its prime. Anyone is holding this, should seriously consider consuming before it looses further its character......

  This was ok but took longer to open up than I anticipated. Consumed at dinner out. Followed by a Talenti 2006 which was far better and deeper from the first sip, though I anticipated a lengthy period of air before it would drink well. The Velona was ok but not as deep or interesting as I hoped.

  Unfortunately this has passed its prime. Slightly oxidized. Disappointed but probably did not store it well enough.

  PnP before dinner and poured a small sample. Darker red fruit, some wood. On the nose after about 30 minutes there is red fruit and tobacco. On the palate red fruit, tobacco, some heat and finishing with a mouth-drying finish. Medium body, medium+ acidity, medium+ to high- tannin. Better and more complex flavors with dinner of sausage, greens and tomatoes with a mushroom risotto.
