Last bottle, at Ernest. Good richness and red fruited depth, but lacking some of the engaging complexity of other 2004s I’ve had. Also a little bit of alcohol on the nose.

Youthful looking dark ruby with hints of lightening around the edges. A beautiful nose shows inviting aromas of dried roses and bright red fruits, lifted sandalwood. A refined, silky palate follows through with layers of floral and wood spice perfumed sweet red fruits, good acidity, ripe and fully resolved tannins and a long finish. Excellent showing for this wine.

Elegant, medium bodied with a very pretty floral nose with red cherry and raspberry. Good texture and balance to pair well with a varied Italian meal. Delicious not deep.

Fragrant, light, and exceptionally fresh. Light red, clear. Highly perfumed. Strawberry. Superb balance. Very little tertiary development.

Elegant, refined, and confident. Has entered what is hopefully a nice long plateau of maturity.
