April 11, 2014 - Antonio Vallana e Figlio: extensive vineyard(s) tour and vertical tasting (The Family's Cellar, Maggiora, Italia): {in cantina} Slightly more bricked than the '96 Boca served just before, this opens to reveal a considerably more mature, and ready wine than the aforementioned. Notes of cola, sweet cherries, some soil. But, wow, on the palate, I mean I was not ready/expecting this at all. Full, round, glossy and perfectly seamless. Full on delicious, and though the finish didn't project that structure that some of the others before it have, this is the first one today that's truly ready right now. Still full in the middle, this is one to seek out for current consumption. highly recommended
Served non-blind. Aerated to decanter and immediately returned to bottle 2 hours before tasting.
