2006 Clerico Massimo Lessona - one of the sexiest wines I've enjoyed in a while. Aromas of dried roses, herbs and ripe cherry with a smooth silky texture of dried cherry, plum, leather and sweet tobacco. Developed nicely in the decanter for two hours. This wine is singing a beautiful harmonious tune that can be enjoyed now and over the next decade.

High tannin and somewhat tired fruit. Heavy French oak makes this seem like American oak (vanilla/coconut shavings). Disappointed. People love this on here, I think it's ok.

Twist Somm is a genius! Very nice and really knows pairings! Youthful and ripe. Perfect with lobster and Pumpkin gnocchi .

Still young and full of big tannins. Big cherry core with a little anise on the finish.
