Surprise, surprise, this fell a little short, especially for its aroma. A nice, full color, it failed to explode into its usual fireworks for the nose, trapped between scents of mushrooms and shrubs which struggled to express themselves. Even after airing in the glass it was 'only' linear, without reaching those heights it was destined to achieve. The taste was best thing about it, nice and fresh and rich in flavors. However, here, too, it really did not take off, maybe it is just a phase, maybe.... something unthinkable for a Confortino of this age and something to weep about and thus explains it low ranking... its failure to inspire dreams.
