  Surprisingly advanced, the warm vintage certainly speaks here. Roasted and rich, very small hints of oxidation, plenty of stuffing, but this lacks the structure for long term aging. Drink up, if you have it.

  Brick red, some browning at the edges. Nose is pretty. Dried rose petals, tea leaves, and sweet cherry. A bit darker on the palate, maraschino and tobacco. Tannins rise, still drying. Some alcohol on the finish, but overall quite happy with this. 15.0 abv

  Nice typical sangiovese nose. A bit too high alcohol and tannins on palate. Surprisingly this went downhill fast - already 3 hours left in fridge half full a glas later that evening showed unpleasant advancement/oxidation. Wine suddenly smelled like it was 30-40 years old. Yuck.
