Review
The 2015 Taurasi pulls you close with a bouquet of wet fall leaves, tobacco, lavender, crushed plums and hints of mocha. This is leaner than expected, with silky textures that usher in mineral-tinged red and black fruits laced with nuances of spicy oak. This tapers off structured, as tannins pinch at the cheeks, and hints of sour citrus and dark chocolate slowly taper off.

Review
The 2016 Taurasi is understated in the glass. Coaxing slowly reveals black currants and dusty dried flowers. It's textures are silky and round, contrasted by brisk acidity and tart wild berry fruits that slowly saturate the palate. The 2016 finishes structured with a coating of grippy tannins. Sour citrus and savory herbs resonate on and on. While youthfully backward, the balance here is fantastic. That said, the 2016 will require cellaring to show its best.
