On first pour, plenty of amber color and seeming mature and resolved. Then it did its Innocenti thing. With air, it put on weight, deepened (enormously) in color and the tannins emerged. So, it’s evolved…a bit but it’s also splendid. An outstanding pairing with rosemary, garlic poussin draped in prosciutto. Deep, sour cherry flavors are haunting and so distinctive. Bravo!

Tasted from barrel - lusher and sweeter than 2011. Easier to like but with good terroir.
