Smooth, soft tanins and nice vanilla notes throughout. Vibrant fruity nose. Extremely easy drinking, and don't bother waiting even though this will probably remain good for a couple years. It's drinking great now.

Lots of pine tar, tobacco, earthiness; less fruit than I expected and not quite as big a wine as I expected, given my previous experiences with La Bestia and Il Mulinello. Went very well with beef rendang, a Malaysian dish, for which the cook (our son) picked what he thought would be an appropriate wine that would stand up to a dish with 25 different ingredients.
