A year ago this was super tight and tannic. Starting to come out of its shell now

Spicy clay with a deep streak of citrus dried marinated strawberry, that is black lime, but with a blood orange. Burgeoning mouthfeel, awash in tannins of varying integration, cascading perfectly into a silvery metallic finish that is cloaked in the thinnest chiffon of smoke. Sexy, refined, and mysterious.

Disappointment. Weak nose. Small whiff of cherry which is barely noticeable on palate. Smooth tannins but awkward. No length. No complexity. Bummer. My first disappointing Rinaldu.

Soft & elegant, in a great integrated place. So old school!

Decanted , surprisingly only light sediment. When I put my nose in the glass it reminded me of an old fashioned antique store. Musty leather entwined with truffles . The acid is prominent along with plums and tar that effortlessly coated my mouth. I feel confident it will continue to evolve but I felt it was in a perfect spot for my taste.
