Nice dark fruit, smooth and drinking well. My last bottle and worth the wait. Paired with linguini in a rich butter, parmesan and prosciutto sauce, worked perfectly.

A big yet fresh Sangiovese, merlot and syrah blend. On the nose: black cherry, plums, floral, licorice and some tobacco. On the palate: savory and just a bit drying tannin. Medium long finish easies out to some floral sweetness. Calls out for food... 90+. Should get another bottle and see how it evolves in another 2 years. I love the fact that the abv is 14 even though 2009 is a very hot year.

Dark cherry with delicious earthy notes. Still lively with juicy acidity. An awesome bargain.

The bottle was slightly corked for me.
Despite the deviant nose, the palate was still very enjoyable
