92+ with food very charming, approachable, and balanced. Youthful energy, but with poise. Tomato compote complements the super Tuscan profile with some California pizzazz.

Lighter in body and tannin then expected, but starts to open up with olive dried cherry cassis, bramble and spice. Very approachable and easy to drink. I’m not sure it’s going to get much better based on the mild acidity and tannins now.

Savory blueberry compote with sage, olive tree leaf, and a drop of balsamic vinegar. More subtle oak with charred wood and a little vanilla and chocolate. A wonderful example of old world sensibility (40%) made in a new world (60%) climate. Full body, but not overpowering. Full rich mouthfeel finishes clean. Medium plus velvety tannins, a tad chewey (good). Medium plus acid. Long finish.

Lovely, Wine! Pretty purple color, warm, savory, blueberry, and blackberry nose. Savory blueberry on the pallet medium long finish.
