  N: smoked meat. Black liquorice. TUscan terroir. Good! Layered and rich with well-integrated oak.P: Med+ bodied. Full dense satiny. Grippy delicious sweet med+ tannins Brooding and powerful. This is good, good stuff. Want to see how this progresses. 90-94?
  
  This would be a wonderful bordeaux.... ah Rolland. Makes bordeaux everywhere :)

  September 25, 2008 - Wonderful sweet fruit, hard edge tannins. Way, way, way overpriced at around $110. At $40 it would be a great wine.
