  Drank as a lead-in to our New Year's eve meal (polenta with boar ragu). Set the stage nicely, being followed by a very nice brunello. Not quite enough oomph to handle the main course but did nicely with the cold cuts that were served as an appetizer.

  Very nice. Medium bodied with great acidity. Balanced fruit beyond the usual berry flavors. Restrained tannins, nice long finish with decent complexity.

  This declined quite a bit since I had my last bottle about a year ago. The nose shows wet forest floor, mushrooms, some dark cherries. Acidity is still there, and balance is good, but the bottle was a bit oxidized and showed little fruit and mostly leathery flavors, a bit of hot alcohol, and some oak. Disappointing.

  Can this really go as long as the drink window says?
