Maureen Nelson comes to town and we drink mostly red Burgs. (Il Corso.): This is a beauty. An initial whiff of Brett blows off to show nicely perfumed strawberry, cherry and minerally earth aromas. Red fruited on the palate that has ripeness, yet purity, nuance and focus. The wine dances lightly across the palate but lingers allowing you to see all its delicate parts. Still showing a plenty of youth, it's thoroughly enjoyable now, though I'd be curious to see how it is with further development. Solid A-.

scents of reduction, needed decanting, showed a bit hollow in the mid-palate at first, nose cleaned up with vigorous swirling, 90 minutes on, wine had fleshed out - wait a couple years altho tannins nonexistant
