May have opened a bit early but very tasty none the less. Bright, red fruit on the palate with some tobacco, vanilla and pepper on the back. Full bodied with a medium finish. A fair amount of oak on the finish which I would expect of Del Dotto.

Great potential but too early yet. Deep indigo in color. Typical Del Dotto profile. Big, bold, fruit bomb with grippy tannins. A bit astringent at this age but portends well for about 5 years from now

2 hour decant. Deep inky purple. Big nose of blueberry, plum and blackberries with notes of smoke and ash. Flavors are similar with oak and cedar. Super smooth and silky mouthfeel. Great balance of tannins and Acidity. Long finish. Really nice. 93-94.
