Gracefully developed with savory richness stepping up to the foreground. Rich leather, dried plums and cherries, fresh potting soil and a solid finish.
In a prime drinking spot right now for this collaborative maiden vintage of mondavi and frescobaldi!

Harsh tannins. Not enjoyable. Tried several bottles over the years, but never really smoothed out.
