Steadily drinking through Corti Brothers' supply. :mrgreen:

This bottle was in a very nice place for me. The nose was frankly amazing, with layers and layers....cherry, soy, meat (lots of meat), blackberry. I kept sniffing this wine. Palate did not quite live up to the nose, but that's only because the nose was so fantastic! still...delicious bright cherry fruit with very nice blazing acidity (not out of balance by any means), some roasted notes, tomato, meat, black pepper. Lots going on! Very fine...I wonder if Corti has any left?
