Dark red with a mature hue. Dark fruit, mushrooms, wet leaves and balsamic note coming through in a typical tuscan nose. Despite the age the fruit still seemsvery fresh and lively. In the mouth very smooth hwith a lot of mature tannins surrounded in a massive fruit. The notes from the nose are also presence in the mouth along minerals.
Drink up, does definately not improve.

Nicely clean fresh nose with a lot of citrus coming through. Also butter, pineapple and melon.
In the mouth full-bodied fruit surrounded by a heavy acidity, and again the citrus components are present. Needes a lot of air to open up, and a slightly hollow mid-palate but a nice glass of white Burgundy.

Totally closed down, not showing anything.
On the second day it showed raspberry on the nose, but still a massive rough tannins and acid in the mouth.
The wine got huge potential and will probably come out very well, but it has to be cellared for several years.
