The colour is ruby with bricking at the edge. Very interesting nose: sweet red fruit, red cherries, a lot of spices, pine, tobacco, wood-spice. The palate is both fruit driven with nice and sweet red cherry fruit, but also with a surprisingly fresh and vibrant acidity that is very well balanced. There is a touch of wood tannins, and also just a touch of heat on the palate. A lot of spices intermixed with the fruit. This is really drinking great now!

Vinturi aerated followed by a 1 hour decant. Mostly heat on the nose. Very astringent with not much fruit showing through. Just an ok wine that I was was expecting much more from at this price point and for this vintage. Two bottles left, will try for a longer decant next time.

La Tablee: Celebratory Dinner (BYO) (26 Bridge Street, Brooklyn): Was on our table to begin (I believe left over from the afternoon tasting) so I tried a bit. This was in that fruity style. Lots of red berries. Good acidity. Nice balance. It's tasty although overshadowed by some others.

Big wine. Warm. Reminds me of Christmas for some reason. Maybe the panettone notes. Great for a cold winter night. But it's warm. You've been warned.
