Saturday, November 16, 2013 - Stewed cherry, cassis, rust, tomato, graphite and smoked meat on the nose.
Full bodied and smooth palatal presence with mid-level acidity and rather ripe fruit. Tobacco, chocolate, rust and graphite. Long dusty finish.
Mediocre showing. Could definitely use more structure and intensity.

So everything it's there but the conclusion is a little disappointed, isn't it?
Little hopes for my plan to hold it until 2023...
Cheers!

My entire fault. Agreed with your TN.
Tignanello slippered its traditional punch and soul long ago.
A pity!
Cheers!

Cheers!
