Community Tasting Note

Caruso Likes this wine:

Sunday, May 5, 2019 - Garnet with orange rim. Ready right from the start with intense bacon, smoke, truffles and game scents combined with cherry fruit. On the palate showing great poise with shed tannin and refreshing acidity. However though quite explosive on the palate the finish is a bit short, but of course it is not a riserva. If I keep in mind that the prices of these wines today are on riserva level of the early 2000s or end of 1990s, it is clear to me that it is not worth to buy it in ourdays for me. 5/13/17/10
If stored at perfect conditions since release like this bottle, this is going to hold through another decade or maybe 15 years. But in my opinion there is nothing to win with further cellar time. I decant this bottle partially. This procedure did not harm, but the wine didn't benefit as well.
