  Rich nose loaded with sweet black cherry, some garden herbs, Asian spice box and cedar. Medum-bodied, this is tight and composed and excellent with mushroom and sausage ragout. High acid, with moderate tannin. Drink now-2031 91

  Promising but too young. With 2hrs air its Shows its potential. Driven by red fruit, crisp acidic backbone, minerality. Next bottle in 3yrs earliest.

  Red fruit, strong (but not rigid) backbone and delightful acid with a medium finish. A great pairing with smashburgers and jalapeño jam.

  Quite pretty. Higher tone, structured feel. More red fruit than dark. Good backbone of acidity like the annata 2019. Incense, cherry on the nose. Touch of incense and lots of fruit magic on the palate. Would pair with a ragu or even bistecca now, more so from an acidity standpoint than body. Travelling, so im drinking from a Shake Shack glass. Very decent, not mind blowing though. Had it with cheeseburgers at home
