Such a beauty! Didnt decanted, room temperature (warmer than books tells). Blackberries, leather, balance, no acidity. Dark color, nice smell, great aroma.

Deep garnet red. Layered and aged nose with leather, cherries, damp cigars, strawberry jam and vanilla. Medium tannins (5.5/10) and medium bodied. Dark berries on the palate with cocoa, vanilla, animal nuances, a hint of anise and a bit of jam. Long finish. Drink till 2026.

Wonderful brambly pleasure here. Deep black fruit, chewy tannins with oak, stems & seeds that ate quite harmonious, especially for the price point. Great find for lasagne bolognese.

Monthly tasting club "The Tasting Club" 2015-06; Tuscany (except Chianti) (@ My place): Cab. Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah blend. Gets 8 months of French oak. In the bouquet ripe and sweet red and dark forest fruits. On the palate dark and red berries, sweet spices, some autumn impressions, beautiful acidity and round, pleasant tannin with still a soft bite. Very clean and harmonious wine; a great pleasure. Fully mature now, but no real hurry. The score might seem high, but considering the wines around it in this tasting, it really deserves it.

Definitely has years of aging left. A robust wine on first evening after open for one hour. Fruit and tannins in balance. A good food match.
