Took hours to open up apparently. Lots of tertiary development. Drink now.

Taut and high toned. I do not love the elevage imprint, but the fruit character is classic.

Better than the last bottles we had of this over the summer. Beautifully balanced, lots of very nice red fruit, excellent acid. Just a very delicious wine.

Fabulous sangiovese...equals and betters many of its more exalted brethren with a capital B. 2016 drinks beautifully with a few hours in the decanter. Plump cherries, leather, camphor, violets on the nose. Rich, great acid, softening tannins. Love this.
