Development with drinkability and intrigue is a winner. Med + tannins mellowing out. Less tar, more cherry, and singed herb and earth.

These wines are so beautiful. Gorgeous array of earthy/tar goodness that weave nicely with surprisingly deep and rich fruit, firm mineral backbone, and beautiful floral tones. The tannins appear to be softening, giving the sense that these once rigid tannins are coming around nicely. Deep black cherry and black plum, fresh tar, crushed flower petals, amaro spices, crushed rock, a sense of hung or cured meat, leather.

I like the Bianco but this is very serviceable with Italian dishes.

Wasn’t sure what to make of this. Enjoyed it but seemed pretty two-dimensional. Maybe needed to give it more time in the cellar.
