Has fallen off since last bottle in 2009......fruit still there, but with less richness, and there's a mid-palate astringency that we didn't recall in the earlier tasting. Doubt that there will be much improvement over time, so I'd drink 'em up if you've got 'em. Still very nice and a terrific food wine, just not as intense or as well-balanced as in the past.

Drank over 2 days. Very enjoyable. Again, I suspect that Sangiovese adds a nice, distinctive element.

Liked it. The Sangiovese added a nice touch - a California Super Tuscan.
