Knockout nose of bright red berry fruit, leather, and high toned minerality. Licorice. Spice. So refined and elegant. Refined and elegant aromas with remarkable precision. Palate is super precise and has lovely, focused and concentrated red berries. A lovely acid spine as well builds on the velvety and ripe tannins. Very complex and long. Awesome and explosive. Chalky tannins. This has at least 15 years ahead of it. So young but so good. A bomb ass Marginale.

So balanced, fresh and pure with red berry fruit, gorgeous minerals and incredible finesse. Lovey structure and stoney sweetness. Sappy and deep. Wonderful depth and length. Really the most elegant Marginale yet. Still needs time to open. As it opens it just levels up. More fruit and sap. 9.5 to 9.6.
