I’m reminded of the richness of Luxardo cherries without so much sweetness. Little breath of black peppery goodness. Light leather scent and velvety texture in the mouth. Some sediment in the pour. Delightful, delightful, delightful. Left open for 3 hours before drinking.

Jul 31st, 2018This was so thin and coarse on release that I recall leaving most of a 2 oz taste in the glass. 3 years later and it's gained weight, complexity, completely integrated and plummy fruit that's un-Napa in its mouthfeel but the dark chocolate and cassis burst out on the nose. I guess great winemakers are really tested in years like this, Coturri, Kamen & Co really came through here.
