PnD half the bottle and let air for 2hrs. Shows the heat of the vintage with pruny leathery Amarone like qualities yet still enough youthfulness to make it a very nice wine. More life than I thought it would have but if I had any more I would be drinking up soon.

Nose of menthol, over-ripe cherries, and forest floor. Sour cherries initially with a finish of cocoa and chocolate. 20 second finish. Paired extremely well with steak.

Boerne Wine Club - Italy (Scenic Loop Cafe, San Antonio, TX): Open aromatic nose with great complexity--hints of cherry, herbal notes, and fresh sea air. Sour cherry palate with layers of raspberry and a hint of leather. lengthy finish that adds a stony character. Great complexity with a focused palate of a young wine that hints of added complexity with age.

Musky nose of grilled meat, buckets of dark ripe cherries. Nice saturation, earthy sideshows. Drink up.
