Per other postings, this needs LOTS of air and more time in bottle to reveal its true potential. Even with 3 hours of air (no decant) and two+ hours of drinking, this was barely starting to open up.

This wine was initially big, burly and richly fruited but 3 hours in the decanter revealed lovely structure behind the dark cherry and blackcurrant fruit that came into fine focus. There was plenty of length, grip and chew here but equally tons of character and purity.

Either alrady slghtly over the top or all done with increadible rioe fruits. For my taste missing the freshness, too many porto-style notes. Don‘t eait any longer!

Distinctly Italian Bordeaux blend with an atypical animalistic barnyard type nose with mushrooms and plumb. A wild like, structured frame yet smooth. Mint and red berries on a lingering finish. Drink now-2029.
