Dusty red fruit. Aging well, but quickly. Drink within the next 10.

Wonderful! Big, bold, dry, dark. Had aged well in 18 months since tasted.

Sediment. Spicy, yet very smooth up front. Decant. A slight tannic finish. Super Bowl dad Tara Erin Myra.

Pulled the wrong vintage, recently had a 2017 and same notes apply. Still too young. But also still nice.

A bit different than previous FN vintages. This one less fruit forward, a bit more acidic, and tannins really tight. This one is obviously very young, but still tighter than previous vintages. Black and blue fruit come through, with some wet stone, vanilla, and licorice. Needs more time in the cellar.

Most recent vintage, second bottle 6 months on from the first. Young but already impressive. Not surprisingly, I’d expect this to age well.

New vintage from Far Niente does not disappoint. Full body, dry, tiny bit of acidity. Blackberries, vanilla and leather. Nice!
