My second bottle of this was not nearly so enjoyable. It comes across as almost watery. Apparently in the month since I last had this, the austerity has won. As a 2003 Dolcetto, I think this is over the hill.

Nose of plums, cherries, and earth. Fair structure and balance. The wine could use more acid to brighten it, but it's in no way flabby. Surprising tannins on the finish. A rather austere dolcetto. But in the end, it's well done and pleasing.
