Saturday, November 10, 2018 - 2018 Villa d’Este Wine Symposium – Kelly, RJ, Justin and Kevin's excellent adventure; 11/7/2018-11/11/2018 (Villa D’este, Lake Como): Luck would have it that the last bottle drunk was at the Domaine in 2017. Exquisite nose at the youthful peak displaying pure red and black fruit, crushed blackberry, candied raspberry, nicely developed sous bois, Vosne spice, a hint of blue cheese, grilled ribeye and limestone. Beautifully integrated youthful palate, very finely layered pure red and black fruit, perfect balance and harmony, perfect amount of acidity and mineral, and a seamless long blackberry driven finish with lovely sous bois and grilled fat at the end. It is drinking beautifully but can improve further, especially you are looking for subtle sweet red fruit and additional tertiary notes.
