(Isole Y Olena Cepparello) Great nose of violets, sweet cherries, lilacs, brown sugar, leather, and some oaky vanilla. The oak calmed down on the nose within twenty minutes. Spectacular concentration and sweet fruit with tannin amassing on the finish. Then they sit and stay. Way too young at this point. The fruit and acid are there but clamped down on the finish. This has serious material in reserve. Wow, these tannins are big!
