  First note: cloudy pale white oak/mahogany color. Indescribable (in a transcendent way) nose and palate. 98.
  
  I revisited to add some other thoughts and captured: Dried Italian herbs, slightly medicinal (in a curative way), sweet in style, but dry on the palate, long as the day, very savory, finishes with strong tannin.
  
  Wine of the year so far - I can only hope to see a bottle again in my lifetime.
