Last one. Still decent. Flavors a bit faded compared to previous bottles. I would recommend drinking in the near term, although there is no need to panic.

Medium dark red. Clearly has shed some of the oaky influences of its youth, with more true to type pomegranate and iron character on the nose. On the palate, the baby fat is apparent upfront but gone by the finish, where seriously respectable tannins accumulate. I like the direction this has taken in the cellar.

Friday night at home with porchetta redone on the grill. Wine cut nicely through the richness of the pork. Enjoy this wine with food and would consistently score it higher than most others have.

(DI MAJO NORANTE CONTADO AGLIANICO) #2; COLOR-really nice; NOSE-red beets, hint or Kirsch, potpourri of flowers; TASTE-a great shock of acidity on mid-palate, interesting layers of green, red & yellow peppers, this is real wine, shoots w/ a chocolate covered strawberries reduction sauce on the finish (keeps New World fans on board), nice smokiness; a SCREAMING value for $12; RP-91; GV-90-

Saturday night at home with Jill's "Inside out eggplant parm". Nice pairing. Last of this vintage in the cellar.
