Lovely Aussi expression of this grape. Lively flavors and smooth in it’s transitions particularly for a wine so young. Closer to a Ghemme than a Barola. Earthy, Raspberry, rose petal, dried fruit, hazelnut. Very approachable young as it is not overly tannic or acidic. — 9 months ago

Tasty and light, with some richness. — 3 years ago
Nose is cherry flower. A hint of skunkiness but not a lot.
Palate really has not a huge amount of fruit. A tad vegetal. A tad hot. Still some juiciness. Some soft rather lovely cherry. Some good deliciousness.
Fruit is a bit soft. Otherwise I’d like it more.
I’m enjoying drinking this even if it isn’t perfect. I’m not either.
As this opens the nose gets cherry lipstick. Lovely. — 3 years ago
Sexy fucking wine. Sexy is overused but I’d get in a hastily planned 3 month relationship with this wine that would end in bitter heartbreak. Gorgeous nose. Flowers, big cherries, lipstick vibe. Palate is ripe and opulent with lovely sucrosity and wonderful freshness. Silky tannins and great mouthfeel. Very 15 but also very alluring. Long finish. Wonderful mineral drive and very complex. Great today. — 5 years ago
