My favorite vintage so far of the non-cru Ronchi blend. The purity of fruit in good vintages is highly charming and seductive. Briefly decanted before dining on veal saltimbocca, the wine is proving to be forward enough for young drinking but won’t reach prime time for another few years. Rivals the 2010 at this early stage.

Dark cherry and balsamic-berry notes. Tart with medium-firm tannins. Overall, fair not great.

Decanted. Please pair with some rich mushroom sauce and you will be happy. SS
