Tar and cherries within a wall on tannins that has relented somewhat but is still austere. The classic flavors are very nice and it goes well with Salami.

from coravin - tons of sediment. Very tannic upon opening. dry. Nose is advanced. palate - behind wall of tannins is a lovely bright and clear cherry with a healthy dose of earth tones. If this tannins subside, there is something very charming in thd mid weight, elegant wine. Finished off bottle on 3/3 - a little more resolved, but this defintely fully mature and would drink up.

7 Days in Italy II; 2/17/2019-2/23/2019: From 3L. Gunflint and darker red fruit aromas. Flint turns to earthiness. Medium plus tannin, really chewy and still intense after 19 years. Probably could attribute a good portion of that to the 3L format.
