This had seen a good bit of air before dinner. That air really opened this up beautifully with flowing tones of strawberries, red cherries, raspberries, roasted herbs, rose petals, crushed rocks, savory spices, violets, licorice, and loads of perfumes. There is so much depth and poise that really draws you in with loads of layering at this time. The Full bodied feel has a light-heavyweight fighter quality to it with deep tones that are backed up with crisp, high acidity and silky, high tannins that have been resolving. The structure has peeled back a good bit and has fully revealed a gorgeous Giacosa that is fully in flight.
