Community Tasting Note

    September 11, 2021 - Outstanding. Very reminiscent of Flaccianello.

    Dark ruby, almost verging on purpleish. Still very tight, right out of the bottle lots of notes of cherry, herbs, and a little dark fruit. After about 5 -6 hours in the decanter the red fruit came down just a notch and it added wonderful minerals and herbs, with the distinct slightly saline note on the finish.

    Great now, would recommend significant decanting, and should be fabulous in another 5-7 years.
