  Stunning rich and powerfull. Incredibly developed after decanting. Full bodied with exeptional finish. Robert Parker 96

  In perfect shape this opened with a deep yet clear dark cherry colour and a nose of mulberry, dark cherries, blueberry, thyme and touches of tar and roses. The palate is deeply flavoured with plenty of dark cherry and mulberry balanced by autumn herbs and a firm line of fine tannins that persist nicely in the mouth. Excellent.

  This is a spectacular Super Tuscan, but drinkers beware: right now it is a bit hot and tight without decant. Still, all the depth is there. Those of us who like the burn can start early, but swish liberally in mouth to get all the layers. Then go as slow as you can, because in 3 or 4 hours this baby really opens up into BIG. It is all there -- dark cherries, leather, dark chocolate, cedar, vanilla, other dark fruits, a hint of stone, and maybe even a touch of almond butter in there somewhere. Rich and bold are the watchwords, structured like a great Tuscan.

  Thought this might have been flawed upon opening, even after 90 minute decant, so took to my local wineshop where awesome palates prevail. They said, perhaps imbalanced but nothing really wrong, so took home and double, triple, quadruple decanted for 3 more hours. Took to my blind tasting wine club, where it finished in the top 3 out of 12 super Tuscans!!
  Folks these have to be heavily decanted.......even at 11 year old, and will obviously prevail years from now! Enjoy!!
