So delightful. Wry approachable , but it has the tannins and bones to age well. Get 2, so you can enjoy one now, and another in 10 years. Worked well with oven-roasted salmon, sautéed spinach and steamed sweet potatoes and a tahini lime butter. A lively Mediterranean hillside in the nose, lots of res currant on the approach, and a little pepper on the finish. It has that fresh Beaujolais personality but with decanting and an hour it shows character and depth. — 5 years ago
Heavy hitter here! Lemon Madelines covered in dark caramel, cola, orange zest, aged rum, fine tobacco, vanilla, baked blood of tubers, roasted chestnuts. The palate is aggressive as a sleeping beast caught unawares. An awkward silence, impending clash, metallic taste. Ethiopian coffee-candy, burnt cinnamon roll, honey-maple babies, brown sugar, licorice extract ash, African dream tea, Fernet branca tonic. Lingering dark aftertastes. Heavy and potent as the surprised eyes of the roused beast. Lunge. — 7 years ago

Amazing tobacco and res fruits. Great balance. Needs decanting for an hour or more. Perfect with grilled meats. — 9 years ago
I loved this wine. Very bold but very smooth. Very deep res in color. Had for Christmas 2020. It was wonderful. One of the best wines I’ve tasted. — 5 years ago

Día de parrilla, domingo familiar, un solcito rico, me soprende lo versátiles que pueden ser estos vinos, los hemos probado con pastas acompañadas de salsas de todo tipo, con guisos y ahora con carnes de pollo, res y chancho, salchichas hot dog, salchichas blancas y de guarnición ensalada de lechuga, tomate, palta, armonía perfecta! Mil gracias a mi colega Carlos Meza de Il Pastificio cada día aprendo mas sobre los vinos italianos con él. Buen Domingo! — 9 years ago

Held amazingly for its age. Still has a lot of res fruit character. Was great for a short sip fell apart fast. Well past it’s past prime. Delicate and oxidized. Just what the pharmacist ordered. — 5 years ago
