  Devant 5 hours at a minimum. It has a rustic expression. Elegant with long finish. This is a very well made wine.

  Nose of crushed red berries, currants, with herbs and lavender. Palate of tannic red raspberry, and lush ripe plum, with strong mid fruit of elegant construct with mineral soil and white pepper. The subtle herb of basil and thyme lead to a long finish of strong tannins and acidic raspberries, cherry, and ripe plum. Had with veal Saltimbocca, fall vegetables, roasted potatoes.

  Paired perfectly with cavatelli and meat sauce. Still needs time to settle as tannins and acidity were high after a 2-hour decant. I see other posters saved some for the next day (wish my thirsty friends/family would allow me to do that!). Solid bones, just need a bit of patience with this one, but the structure for a superb vintage is here: medium body, bright red fruit, anise, cedar, chocolate and mint were among the notes. Will wait another 4-5 years before popping the next bottle, expect this to get really good.
