  PnP enjoyed over two nights; night one was better, for me, unsure about what others may have preferred. My glowing tasting note of July 2017 suggested this might have a preferred plateau thru 2025, and that seems to be the case, as this bottle was delicious, and complex (a nearly equal mix of secondary and tertiary notes), but was absent the pace of its youth, as will happen. That said, it still operated at a high level considering its purity, balance and length. 13,0% abv., drink in the next few years while the getting is still (this) good. highly recommended

  Color: medium ruby, hints of Garnet
  Nose: red apple, blackberry, blueberry and plum, ripe but not too much. Hints of pie crust, smoke, bitumen and rhubarb pie. There is a hint of octane, or hydrocarbons anyways at the end of every sniff
  Palate: at this stage it's very endearing and balanced. Hint of sweet, medium-high acidity and medium tannins that are however close to resolved. Body is medium full, leaning full. Follows the nose with hints of liver and blood that I must guess are from the aglianico
  Finish: medium-long
  
  In a fantastic spot, fruit is there but so are tertiaries. It still has tension but it drinks easy and charming. There is nuance but it's subtle, in aglianico form, a reverberation you must pay attention to. Excellent, though I prefer unblended aglianicos in this age group to be fully honest
