Tasted at the winery in a flight with the '07, '08, and '09. Lovely big nose of fruit and oak, but on the mouth the tannins are a bit overpowering, and unbalanced with respect to the fruit and acid elements. Too young, I can't tell how long I would have to wait before this is in its drinking window. Good wine to be sure, but my least favorite of the three in this flight.

Dark ruby. Aromas of cherry, raspberry, spices, tobacco, vanilla. High concentration, high acidity, plenty of tannins. Long. Bold. Still too young.

Very good wine. Maybe could have a touch more acidity? But paired really well with Ossobucco with Risotto.
