This one might be a little past its prime at this point, but still a solid Tuscan.

Drinking well now but will benefit from 3-4 years of cellaring.

Another solid offering from Two Hands. Not nearly as good as the Bella's Garden, but that's a pretty high bar to reach. I agree that it would definitely benefit from serious decanting.

Equal parts of Syrah and Cab. Decanted for 1.5 hours. Outstanding! Nice on the nose and even better in the mouth with an elegant finish.

At first, too much alcohol - really hot. But it really improved after the second hour of decanting.
