  Semi-translucent dark red. Cherry, warm oak spice, and tobacco on the nose. Full bodied, blueberries, blackberries, copious sweet tannins, good acid, leather, dried cherries, and a fairly short finish. This was surprisingly good, very good.

  Garnet, wonderful nose showing quality of vintage: forest fruits, plums, sweet spices, ripe vine/sun dried/fresh/stewed tomatoes. Medium bodied, big tannins that need grilled meat or some years to settle. Sharp acidity complementing the bright yet sweet fruit. 90 now & will improve in years to come.

  Dark ruby. Gorgeous, ultra-clean and continuously evolving nose of currants, black plums, candied tomato, tobacco, violets and sweet spice. Medium-bodied with big tannins that beg for time to resolve, rich fruit and balancing acidity. Long aftertaste. A textbook modern xinomavro. Modernized without compromising its character. The fruit/tannins combination reminds me of a modern Barolo such as D. Clerico's Ciabot Mentin Ginestra. Needs time or a rich meat-based dish like ossobucco.
