Nice cherries, slightly leathery & woody, more earthy than the 04, 06 we tasted at Borgogno.

One of the best wines we've served by the glass this year... Dried crushed rose petals, slightly dried semi-sweet tobacco and ripe concentrated cherry and purple plum. Decant this beauty and let rest 1hour+ before serving.

Better with an hour of air, dark fruit, tar, charcoal - medium/large body.
