I won’t be too repetitive - previous notes apply. This is in an amazing place right now. Absolutely delicious, huge fruit, blackberries and cherries, bright acidity, and medium tannins - pretty much hits all the buttons around the palate. Moderate finish with hint of herbs and oak.

Perfect cork. Dark ruby with slight bricking. Decanted 30 minutes and drank over 3 hours. Better than previous bottle only a few months ago. Nose opens with flowers and wood shavings. Midpalate boasts strawberries, pomegranate, and a touch of leather, framed by a sour cherry finish with a bit of oak. More integrated and complex over time. Drink now or over the next 12-18 months with a long-ish decant.

Drinking beautifully right now. Delicious sour cherry notes, plenty of acid and tannins left.

A relief after several consecutive poor bottles of 8-10 year old Chianti. Sweet and sour cherries, smooth body and finish with no rough edges.
