Opened a magnum for an Italian dinner with friends. Beautifully drinkable. Dark garnet color in the glass. Moderate rim variation. No flaws. Mild sediment. Nose of dark florals and fruits. Low tannn and acid. Medium alcohol. Long finish. Paired perfectly with the meats in "Sunday gravy". Made our evening. Perfectly drinkable.

I decanted this 2 hours before drinking which was perfect. Very in balance right now. Great rustic cherry nose. Dark berries and a little oak on the palate. Best example yet of this wine.

Great nose with big fruit and eventually chocolat and a hint of vanilla... Tannic in mouth, needs plenty of time to open up but still not as complex as nose

Turned over. Brown. It was worth a try.

I thought this was amazing. A beautifully balanced and complete wine. From the attack through the 30 plus second finish was just seamless.
