Top Notes For

Benjamin Silver

On one side well made with pretty aromatics, integrated tannin & balance. On the other hand, now 8yrs old with diminished fruit, the EtOH gets in the way & disrupts the point of Rosso- pretty bright fruit. Would have liked to drink this a few years ago. 14.5% - balance with alc was better on day 2.
