  Wine of the night — the somm poured us a half glass each from the end of the bottle (ie it was well aerated) into a big ol snifter looking red wine glass and — oh wow. The nose was so wild and open like a cigar ate a whole pack of teriyaki beef jerky. Same on the palate but totally integrated and relaxing and mellow in the best possible way. Great dark red/purple color, very little bricking. Super fun and the best old red Italian wine I’ve had.

  Every time I open these (70s-80s produttori) I start to drink them too early (because I have no willpower), and I’m disappointed until hour two or three, when they start to unfurl. Really flavorful. Red berries, leather, iodine.

  This was nice but a bit one dimensional compared to the others we had that night.

  drinking very well now, tannins are fully integrated and the texture is silky, the 14% abv sticks out a bit, that woul dbe the only criticism, that the density of flavor doesn't quite match that one element of structure, but otherwise, still fresh and balanced, with no further reason to age this, though it isn't dropping off either. just the perfect spot now.
