Deep garnet in color with bricking edge. Nose of cherries, cedar, violets, and hint of leather. Taste of ripe cherries, smoke box, menthol, and a slight earthiness. Lovely fruit and in a wonderul place now, but will likley drink well for another 5+ years.

Served blind. Initially I wasn’t sure if if this was Bordeaux or Brunello! Brilliant scarlet ruby with a garnet rim Cedary cherry fruit with fine tannins. Really quite lovely and refined. This particular bottle is in fanatastic shape with no end in sight.

Brilliant scarlet with a hint of garnet at the rim. Very supple dry cherry flavors framed by a light dose of oak. Won't last forever, but drinking nicely right now.
The more I drink it, the more I worry it may start drying out over the next few years.

Nice bottle and enjoyed by all with our Italian Feast. Perhaps not worth the price though.
