On the nose, dark, slightly baked/stewed; cherries, blackberries, strawberries, rhubarb, cherries and raspberries. Soft spices, vanilla, black cherry licorice and bright dark florals. On the palate; dark, slightly baked/stewed; cherries, blackberries, strawberries, rhubarb, cherries and raspberries, more pronounced spices on the palate, cinnamon, vanilla, clove, black cherry licorice, dry & fresh dark florals, chalky fine minerals, dry powdery earthiness, soft leather, touch underbrush, the acidity is like a waterfall, body is medium lean, dusty to grainy tannins are 75% resolved, showing brown tinge on the edges, the finish is in a really good place, round, lush and last a full minute. It's around its peak with 5-8 years of good drinking left. Newly acquired bottle (3-4 weeks ago) from a pristine Atherton cellar via my friend Alex at"No Limit Wines." The bottles that I received looked brand new from the winery 20 years removed and were reasonably priced. Photos of; the estate, the Lisini family, barrel room and my Veal Bolognese to pair with the wine. It's stunning and amazingly very fresh. Takes us right back to our lunch in Montalcino with another 97 or 98 with great Bolognese 5 or 6 years ago. Amazing lunch. 13.5% which is slightly above perfect. — 7 years ago
