Kept the wine in the cellar for 10 years. Last bottle finished today. The wine is still fantastic. It tastes of blackberry and cheery, medium toast and some leather. The wine looks garnet red, the legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle.

Tart cherries, good acid, reasonable tannins still. Pretty alcoholic and a bit "hot". Worked well with grilled veal chops in red pepper sour cream sauce. Drink now or in the next year or two.

This wine smells like bananas! Big fan of Acorn, though this is not the best dolcetto vintage they've made, it's still a nice wine that is drinking well now. Don't think it will age much more.

This wine has held up really well. Lots of fruit on the nose and palate.
