  - First of all slightly closed, but after 1h decanting nicely open. Red cabernet nose, fruity, meaty aromatics and pepper. Somehow a very good level of complexity a cabernet (85% and rest ist Petit Verdot) can develop. Wow, you can feel the vibrancy and freshness if you sniff the glas.
  - On the palate it is straight forward, really drinkable and even it d'alceo has some body and power, it's fresh and vibrant.The acidity is there and cutting trough the toscany richeness. Great finish and just fun to drink. You can already ejoy this beauty it if you decant it.

  Light body / 13.5pct abv which is nice. Nice native yeasts and funk on the nose. My gripe is this is thin on the mid palate and into the finish. Very soft drying tannin on the finish.

  Had over 4 days and kept drinking well. Would recommend drink or hold. Seems to have many years left. Lots of dried fruit.

  Once again I am showing me lack of patience in opening this bottle too soon and by drinking without any decanting. Plenty of structure and fruit together for 10 years or more. Just need to exhibit some restraint and wait
