July 29, 2019 - My 2nd of 3 bottles, first consumed in March of 2013, pop and pour - consumed over 2 hours. Nose: Medium-plus expressiveness, rust, bright red fruit - cherry - with dark fruit undertones, leather and tobacco notes - very Barolo like on the nose. Palate: Medium-full bodied, ripe red and dark fruit attack, spice driven mid-palate lift, soft (not Barolo like) but gritty tannins with earthy notes in the back-end. Finish: Medium-plus length dominated by ripe dark red fruit and earthiness. This has evolved wonderfully in the 6 years since I last tasted with the palate rounding out very nicely. Drink now or within the next 2-3 years.
