  The wine was corked. Just a slight hint in the nose at the beginning that became very present over 4 hours in the decanter. However, on the palate it was not that bad, just slightly. The potential of the wine is still great and would be again on a 95 pts level, if the there would not have been the cork.

  not unlike a left bank Bordeaux of similar age. Colour showing some age, orange rim, nose , very complex, leather, mocha, rich, complex, and tannins still gripping. Balance is great, even tannins are still assertive . Lovely wine

  Napa 2023 - The Sequel; 8/23/2023-8/28/2023: PnP with early moldy funk that took 15 min to blow off. Mushrooms, oysters, saddle leather, dried tobacco, dried red cherry. Good for what it was, glad I had a chance to try. Not familiar with the aging curve on these but seems past peak for my palate.

  Return to Italy: Pio Cesare, Gaja, Oddero, Tignanello and more (Flour Shop, Charlotte, NC) (Charlotte, NC): Slow-ox for 3 hours before serving. Complex nose of young dried cherries, leather, and tobacco. A wine displaying high quality tones and brimming with confidence. Notes of dried cherries and lightly smoked meat on the pallet. A wine with both power and finesse. Richly flavored and demonstrating great depth resolving into a long finish to red and black fruits. My wine of the flight. 3rd place for Wine of the Night.

  Joel's Tuscan Lunch (The wilds of Kent): Just a hint of browning in the glass
  The nose has a surprising fresh herbal note with lifted dried cherry and plum. Surprising intensity in the glass - really sapid and delicious. The bright red cherry element speaks of Tuscany. Lovely stuff
