I don’t have much experience with IGT, but this was very nice. Notes of leather, a bit of fireplace, restrained dark fruit notes, and a long finish. Good complexity and balance. Tannins soft but still very present. Drinking very well right now, and likely still has a lot of life ahead of it.
From the producer: 50% merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, and 10% petit Verdot. 14% ABV.

Well, here we are a little more than 18 months from the last note, and I’m going to say the same thing. Tannins are pretty assertive. It paired good with pasta, but was a bit much on its own.

Agree with Irish_Wine. This Pietra is rock solid and hitting its stride. D/H.

Nice and dry, dark fruit. A menthol whiff or two.
