Community Tasting Note

  • theusualsuspect wrote: 93 points

    August 14, 2023 - Unimpressive on opening - sort of blurred, not offering much. Half of the bottle two days on the sideboard with a cork in it, shows excellent clarity and offering much more, but more years will bring out more. Beautiful structure now and tannic. Concentrated finish. Not particularly on the red fruit side, more black cherry with a bit of earth (terroir?). This is a gran selezione vintage I'm guessing where "I drank it too early" becomes a refrain.
