June 20, 2019 - PnD let air for 1hr.
Oak a bit too dominant initially. Better integration with more air.
Plum tar cassis licorice and sage on the clean nose with medium(+) intensity.
Dry. Medium(+) alcohol. Medium tannins. Medium(+) body. Medium intensity with flavours of plum cassis fennel and balsamic.
Very good. Drink. Ow not suitable for further ageing. Lots of complexity and depth but the balsamic note says drink up. Initially felt a bit contrived but settled down nicely with air. For the denomination should be less than $20. -

March 5, 2019 - Young Market Tasting Prior to Tre B: Big lush dark red, very nicely developed and quite voluptuous, rich flavors soft structure. With seven years development it is ready to go but it has more years of prime time.

March 31, 2017 - Intense ruby red, very consistent, almost viscous, gliceric.
Intense, complex and very fine at nose: spicy (tobacco) and fruity (cherries and elder jam) above all. Very rich.
Dry, alcoholic and rounded. Good acidity and medium minerality. Dry tannins. Intense and fine. Nice powerful entry, supported by the alcoholic content. Fruit following. Medium persistence, good body. Well balanced. -
