Best Monday lunch shift I’ve ever worked. And they left me a sip too, so now I can confirm that the 2010 vintage is ready and willing. What a sublime experience this wine will offer you. Tongue tingling up to ten mins after that sip. Full, and absolutely gorgeous.

Old world and new world meet. Spice, earth, balanced tannin and sweet blackberry. Nice bottling from Far Niente

Amazing how great this was without any decanting or anything. Popped and poured to get some big fruit toward the end of the night and it did not disappoint.

I wish that it wasn't so spot on right now. A stand alone wine after dinner. Dark dark black fruit medium full body, a little leaner than years past. The balanced oak profile is hitting the spot. Perfect dessert.

Bold and solid structure. Blackberry. Forest and density.

Exquisite. Coming into its own age-wise. Still has 10-15 years of aging left. Worth every penny!

With some oxygen - stinks but smooth and silky taste.
