Saturday, October 28, 2023 - Double decanted in the AM. Drunk over a few hours at dinner
At first, tobacco, asphalt and deep dark fruits on the nose. With air time it gains in both he nose and the palate, adding nuance and more layers. Florals, more dark fruits, and savory ferrous notes emerge. This continues to grow int he glass over a few hours with the last glass the best. Meaty, mushroom savory notes come to the fore with time. A complex, deep serious wine drinking at peak with plenty of time in hand. Outstanding. 95
A terrific pairing with a rosemary and oregano braised pork shoulder with polenta.
