November 7, 2012 - No notes taken.
Decanted 1 hr.
Perfect clean cork, no sediment.
Great dark '05 color.
Excellent medium weight Sang with classic leather, plum, black cherry, lt. vanilla, tobacco, clay, and red licorice and figs nose and taste.
Good acidity and nice moderate tannins on the end.
Great finish length of over 1 minute.
I had a good feeling about this one.
Lkg fwd to finding anything else by this maker.
Enjoy now or revisit in a few years.
Great solo (almost like a top brunello) or with red meat food.
91/92 pts.
"Cary Grant" polish and pedigree. -

May 9, 2010 - It was oxidized due to improper storage. I should have paid attention purchasing that from a popular tourist supermarket in central Rome.
