This was very nice but I think I prefer it younger rather than aged.

Boatload of tannins. Franc-ish flavor profile. Brooding bloody ending. I'd like to have some of this in my cellar.

2016: Very good Italian Cabernet, drinking young but with solid concentration and balance. Fruit still a bit tart but other flavors are developing and oak is well-integrated. Bit steep at $75 (WL) but only getting better with time.

This had lots of dark cherry, plum fruit, spice & floral that was open & balanced.

Apr 27th, 2022Okay, too early really but still very tasty. Mid weight Super Tuscan with nice savory notes and avoiding the super-ripe profile of many STs.
