Wow - the last two of these have been kicking around in the cellar for a few years and we drank one tonight w/Mars on Steve’s rtn home from Dubai with Mom’s tomato sauce and my meatballs / sausage… expected this to be corked or totally flabbed out but it was our favorite of the night… still a delicate structure of tannins that I do not recall noticing in the past so something special happening wiith this now at the end.

Pnp on a random Sunday night with leftover pizza… first of a case and so delicious right out of the bottle clearly with long runway ahead, but not at all a disappointment to drink now. Update: Frank the remainder on day 3 and I wished I had finished it on 1 or 2… definitely felt a little off-kilter and flabby on day 3. Looking fwd to the rest of the case though.

So fresh and fruity in a delicious old word way. Perfect partner to baked salmon - drank chilled on an unseasonably warm autumn Sunday. would be a star thru a day of Thanksgiving cooking and hors d’oeuvres.
