I found this bottle to be shallow in flavor, especially on the finish. The initial flavor is good - dark fruit, leather and earth - but it was only grape skin deep.

Stored in my cellar since release. In a great place with a 1 hour decant. Red fruit, forest floor, chocolate. Long finish that leaves you wanting another sip. Drink or hold for 5 years (assuming good storage).

Very deep ruby, nearly purple at the core. Double decanted for about two hours. A very ripe and extroverted nose offers aromas of black cherry, cassis, charcoal, wood smoke, grilled rosemary and nutty oak. Full bodied and mouthfilling on the palate with ripe tannins, medium acidity and complex, though slightly cacophonous fruit and cedar flavors. Tasty, if a little much.

Light flavor for a Sorella. The tannins are almost resolved. Good fruit flavor.
