  This has terrific balance and structure to go with generous fruit. Nice secondary oak in a supporting role. Very long finish. Drinks great day two. This has entered its drinking window and should stay there for at least 5 yrs. Great value too.

  First sniff: rosewater... fear of having nebbiolo in the glass (served blind). Afterwards, florals and red fruits emerged and a very light and elegant showing displayed fortunately.
