The trick with this wine is patience. The nose first revealed a redwood & VOC, but a deep cherry has evolved. The tannins are beautifully silky, and the mellowness of pyroxenes has crafted a beautiful bouquet. Totally in its window; 7/15 (1997 vintage)

Tuscan Syrah, it sometimes works. This 09 from Villa Pillo is ready 2 drink, rich but firm.

To dry for me. Full flavored. Dry pucker aftertaste. Good for pasta meal.

Delish. Full bodied Syrah, deep rich color, medium dry, mild tanins, blackberry, raspberry, currant and chocolate overtones, with plum finish. Very nice!
