Ripe boozy and oxidized. A bit Amarone like. Too much bottle variation. Drink up now. No score -

Consistent with previous two notes. Nice fruit and complexity. But still showing leathery drying notes. Drink up. -

December 22, 2022 - Over two days.
Youthful, on the bouquet and palate. Typical of variety, place, and style, shading to BdM. Quite modern. Heavy extraction leads to a gritty bite at the back, which is accentuated by excessive oak. This bottle had at least five years ahead of it. Best with food. 89-90.1 person found this helpful Comment
