Top Notes For
A 96 holding up well! Lots of spice on the nose with a blueberry/blackberry first blush that I hoped would continue, but, I think, over time, the long finish has seen better days (missing the drift). Nonetheless less, this delicious wine is complimenting my calamari pomodoro at Il Palio, in Chapel Hill, NC, at the Sienna Hotel (now a Marriott Autograph property). Good wine, great vibe, cool people..:)! Special thanks to Rachel behind the bar!
