Have been disappointed in the past, but gave this a longer 1.5hr decant in magnum decanter (more surface area) and paired it with fatty steak in creamy sauce. Much better.

Decanted for An hour and a half, then drank over the next couple of hours. Nose of dried cherries, herbs, backed up with scorched earth on the palate. Wall of tannins, individually fine-grained but almost overwhelming in volume and presence. Decant for longer, or leave for a couple of years.

Rather plump, easy drinking wine with some nice spiciness. Hard to place as Tuscan in profile or flavour.
