Round and velvety; excellent concentration without being over the top; tertiary beginning to show; wait another few years before opening the next bottle; excellent price to quality; not blinded

In a really great spot right now. Decanted one hour. Nose is all Italian. While not an amazing vintage this wine has nice structure and flavor layers. Sometimes I think Italian Merlot has more structure than Cab Sauv. Still plenty of tannins to go many years I like where the wine is now. Nice balance of tannin and soft fruit.
Decanted 30 minutes then poured half glasses 30 minutes before dinner. Best bottle so far. Much more structured with a bit more flavor layers. Dark black color. Nose & taste all Italian. No mistaking it. I’d love to try this wine fully mature in a great vintage. I have three more bottles left and hope they are like this one.

Tried another Coravin, still needs more time. Try again in another year, mid to end of 2024.
