A beast, this was showing well but the structure on it is still extremely youthful. Leave it alone for another 5 years for it to settle down.

Nice ripe fruit component, beetroot and a hint of dried tomatos on the very interesting and constantly changing nose. Still a very young wine with present tannins. Needs some air to really show what he got. Give it a decant of 1-2 hours. Better in 10-15 years.

Brilliant, tight, concentrated, fresh, still very youthful, but balanced and promising, thanks to its wild yet sweet and polished tannins which today are hiding behind near perfect fruit.

Really nice. I have had mixed results with this wine. But singing tonight.

Aromas of ripe fruit, clove, smoke, graphite. Some green, stems, and wood in the aroma too, which may be intensified by all the sediment in my glass. Soft tannins.

Right at the sweet point for this vintage. A beautiful Sangiovese.
