This blows 14 away. Awesome nose of macerated cherries, sour cherries, Earth, mineral, floral, roses, tar, so so so stunning. Old school, some superb very specific Nebbiolo cherries. Palate is round and has a amazing sour cherry and early season cherry fruit. So opulent and round but amazingly fresh and dazzlingly pure. Concentrated and lithe with sweet, pure vivid tannins coated with cherry fruit and minerals. Long finish. Better in 5 years but stunning today
