Opened this last night to serve alongside grilled pork chops dry rubbed with white pepper, oregano, basil, grey salt. It was a wonderful match. Plenty of fruit, bright, clean, good acidity to stand up to the spices. Think this is where this wine will stay at for a couple more years, but that's about it. However, at this time, it is a delicious bottle of wine.

Very dark, ripe and rich with a bit of “warmth” from alcohol; the nose and palate are quite similar to an excellent Chianti. 91+

Enjoyed during OTBN, paired with a spicy lamb pasta, fruity, full body, good finish, very smooth wine, drinking very nicely.
