A quick decant more for sediment than aeration. Phenomenal nose of black grape, blackberry, and black current cooked jam. This wine remains lush, fragrant and juicy braced with firm yet velvety tannins with that signature Biale zin touch of spice on the finish. Glad I sat on this one. A great accompaniment to spicy sausage or Mexican food.

Lush fruit, very nice, long finish. Alcohol is high, but not out of whack. These wines really are great with five years of age. Had been drinking them a year or two early and can see the difference. Red and black fruits.
