Deep ruby red with some garnet edges. Powerful still on the nose and palate. Tons of baking spices on the nose, especially cinnamon, dark red berries, and a touch savory. Moderate tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Layers of spices and dark red berries on the palate. Long and lingering finish. Great structure and still has life left in it. Drink till 2022. — 9 years ago

Lightheaded, yet well structured. First time cooked vegetables came up as a GOOD association. — 10 years ago

Needs growth time and patience. Super young and a tad all over the place. Flavors all over the place but after time tobacco and cherry start to emerge. Needs 3-7 more years of age to fully become one of the better super Tuscans — 11 years ago

2012 enjoyed in April 2015. Dark ruby in color with a slight sunset around the edge. Chalky/earth & plum jam nose. Soft tannins and a slight chewy fruit... finish gives you a little jawlock with every taste. Takes an hour or two to open up. Great value at $14 bucks (HEB R/S) — 11 years ago

A wine with the 'yummie' factor, drinks like limonade (in positive sense), playful and elegant. — 11 years ago

Barnaby and I got this wine as a gift on our 10 year anniversary. We found the perfect night to drink it- after a very long day of harvest work with pizza. It was such a treat. — 10 years ago
