Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Saturday, February 24, 2018 - Almost 5 years to the date since last open a bottle, what a difference. In 2013, it was relatively thin, wine didn't really open up, there was fruit. Fast forward to today (best about 2 hour decant), it shows its true Tuscan side, herbs / licorice to start, follow by refreshing acidity, then plummy cherry fruits shows, there's some grip to the tannin (slight grainy)... throw in hints of graphite somewhere along the way. Very enjoyable last bottle. Had 1/4 bottle left for Day 2 (recork & fridge), and its only a notch below Day 1. Probably good to drink for 2 more years? Not the best QPR, but would probably purchase a few bottles again. Gosh these Tuscan wine... it really takes about 7-9 years from vintage to show its true form
