From magnum, nice violet and truffles, tar, rose leaves, good tannin structure, maybe a little bit too alcoholic in the palate and finish, 10 more years ahead to develop his peak

Very close to final retirement. Still enjoyable but presumably a shadow of its former self. Throws a lot of sediment.

2016 Villa d’Este Wine Symposium - Kelly, Alan and Kevin's excellent adventure; 11/3/2016-11/12/2016 (Villa D’este, Lake Como, Piedmont, Milan and Frankfurt): Expressive nose displaying dry cherry, fruitcake, tar, tobacco and a hint of iron. Excellent concentration, silky with a hint of rusty nail, bright acidity, noticeable but nicely integrated tannins, and a long dry cherry and caramel driven finish. Although concentrated, I find the wine to be very traditional. It is very youthful but drinking beautifully. No need to hurry but not a bad time to try one.
