Decanted for 60 minutes. Love this wine. Big, full-bodied wine with sofy tannins and long finish. Lots of dark cherry and plum. Drinking beautifully right now.

This needed several hours of air to reach its best. It is a beautiful wine, I liked it even better than the 2016. Black fruits as well as some tart cherry. Chocolate, cedar and earth. Some smoke or ash as well. Lovely acidity, robust tannins and a stunning long and layered finish. I would think this could age several years and improve even more.

Part of an Italian wine night with my wine group. It followed a 2001 Antinori Tignaello, which was much much different. All the other wines were from 2013 to 2015. This might have been the favorite among the "young" wines.

Deep garnet red lots of ripe fruits and first balsamic notes. Full bodied with soft tannins and excellent length. At its apogee but no hurry needed
