Decanted for 30 minutes and tasted with grilled Elk tenderloin. Translucent ruby garnet with an hint of brick. Light to medium bodied, Pinot Noir-ish. Elegant, classically styled, fresh, vibrant, red fruited, roses, tar and spice. Long finish. Luxurious and easy to drink. Bright acidity but controlled tannin. Delicious if not quite profound. Plenty of life left.

Very enjoyable with a traditional Italian 7 fishes Christmas Eve dinner. A little early in the drinking window but opened well as we worked our way through the bottle. Drink or hold. Recommend a decant for an hour or so. When we finished this, we moved on to a bottle of Mauro Sebaste Tresuri. Different flavor profile but equally enjoyable.

No sediment, one hour decant. Youthful appearance: ruby, minimal rim. Violet nose. Classic flavor profile. Moderate acidity and tannins. Very enjoyable.

Leather, strawberry compote, some minerals, a long finish, just a great wine which is drinking really well right now. It was better night 1.

Not the best example I've had, and needs time it's safe to say. If you have this, hold it and see how it does in 5-10 years
