Great stuff. Med+ tannin, rose petal, freshly crushed cherries, slate minerality, chalk, high acid and a long finish. Drinking well now, but need to get more to lay down for a while.

Delightful. Create a chicken parm with a twist and some steamed spinach. I needed to decant it and let it breathe for a while. During the aperitivo hora.

Delightful and delicious - another great suggestion from the guys at Crush! May have had it a bit early but was anxious to try it.
