Super funky nose of Parmesan cheese. The funk blew off after a bit and the wine is well integrated and balanced, though still tightly wound so no issue decanting a long time (we decanted 1.5 hours). Finish in the short end and not super complex, but very enjoyable (especially at the price). Went well with gnocchi and lasagne.

I think this wine is still a little young and tight - I opened the bottle 4 hours before pouring and it might not have been enough. The color is pretty to look at, and the nose has its charms but just not giving a ton right now. On the palate the tannin obscures the fruit a bit- this is not a "big" wine, but I look forward to this becoming more elegant in a few years.

Solid wine with years to go. Well structured, good fruit, tannic.

Great balance of fruit had an acid after one hour open.
After 2 1/2 hours still wonderful. Definitely high acid….
Lovely. Probably best from opening to three hours in.

Nice, medium bodied, better on day two, cheery. Good QPR via Garagiste. Roses and tar profile as noted in earlier reviews.
