Medium yellow color. Aromas of white flowers, pears, toasted brioche and candle wax. Nicely extracted complex fruit in the mouth with excellent structure and depth. Oak was well-integrated. Still very fresh with no signs of oxidation.

Still pretty young an unevolved. Somewhat buiscuity on the nose with pretty floral tones. Unmistakenly not Burgundy. Still retains its Italian heritage. Long on the palate with a racy streak of acidity.

Same as the 7/25/09 bottle except greater intensity but oak was not as well-integrated. Still very fresh.

Fine fruit on nose and palate. Excellent balance of fruit, mineral and acidiy in the mouth. Minimal oak. Elegant and restrained.
