Brick in color. Nose is cedar, dusty fruit, and old leather. Just a little pungent. The mouthfeel is great. There is bright fruit and great acidity. Medium bodied. Strawberries, raspberry, cedar, and leather. Great tannins. The nose and end shows its age. I feel like I’m 2 years late to a great party.

Ovello always delivers. Ah the sweet tannins are so unique... tannins, fruit, alcohol, acidity: everything is in perfect harmony.

More acid driven than a 2004 we had recently. It opens over a couple of days & shows superb focus & structure balancing some rich red fruit & spicy oak.
