Top Notes For
Tom Casagrande

Another terrific bottle of this. Intense complex nose features dark macerated cherry, porcini, minerally gravel. Rich and mouthfilling, there still is quite a bit of soft tannin, but the acids are very soft, so I think this is peaking. Flavors of leather, dark cherry, and tertiary old mahogany furniture notes. Quite long.

Terrific now but could easily go several more years. Dense, precise fruit and earth in the nose. A little vanilla. Savory and focused in the mouth. Tannins and acids balanced for the future.
