  Deep garnet color. Opened an hour before drinking and barley started to open up. Red berry, vanilla & leather aromas. Black plum, cherry, leathery flavors. Hint of sweet maybe from the bit of Syrah in the blend. Acidity and tannins didn't really blend until a couple days letter when I tried it again.

  Finally hit the sweet spot for me, everything in balance now, savory, silky, cherry, coffee and tertiary aromas in balanced mixture. Doubt will improve more, but now is way better than young.

  Drank after Villa Antinori rosso 2008, this comes more fruity but yet savory, the usual coffee and red fruits have becomes nicely together and much better compared to when the wine is young. I would personally like it with 2-3y more in a bottle, although now is just great with most of Italian meal classics.
