A perfect bottle, perfect fill, perfect provenance. Young feel with a rich, yet balanced fruit, black berries, tobacco, chocolate. Wonderfull freshnes, no hurry to drink this.

A full flavored wonderful wine. Right after opening, on the first sip, the acid was showing more than it should. But within half an hour or so it had already mellowed and the wine was wonderfully balanced with nice fruits. Before opening the fill seemed a bit low, but it turned out that it was nothing to worry about because the wine was wonderful

4/14/2024 - ONEFIVE Likes this wine:
Youthful appearance and alive on the nose.
Dried red and black fruit, tobacco, damp soil, and density.
In the mouth it is med- body, med acid, med tannin.
Well balanced with vibrancy and structure. Only knock is that it is slightly thin (less ripeness = more acid).
It’s holding up well due to the freshness and tannin. Fruit is hanging on well.
This will age for at least another 10-15 years.
