Poured into a decanter about 30 minutes prior to service and enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The 2019 San Valentino pours a deep ruby/purple color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears and a decent amount of sediment. On the nose, the wine is developing with sensational notes of Bing cherry, plum, licorice, Palo Santo, varnish, balsamico, exotic spices, and a mix of dried under brush and earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose . The finish is long and there is no shortage of excitement. A wine that simultaneously makes you think and fills you with joy. Drink now through 2034. — 4 months ago
Ook enkele uren na opening en decanteren een mondvol tannines. Een 8,9. Na 2 dagen begon de wijn uit deze magnum toch wel erg goed te smaken (9,2) en op dag 3 dacht ik: top druif die Sagrantino, goed voor 9,5 punten! — 9 days ago
Dec 2025: PnP, wakes up in half an hour in the glass. Complex, refined and a bit tamed Sagrantino, good structure an medium tannins, very nice overall. Softer and more delicate on the 2nd day. — a month ago

Deep red color with a hint of purple. Medium legs, medium body and very balanced without any sediment. First nose of cherry with a hint of violet and spice. Easy drinking with cherry, raspberry, red fruits with a bit of earthiness and a hint of vanilla. Polished and finishes beautifully.

After the 2019 a couple of months ago now the 2020. Again, a superb wine but still needs additional time in the cellar. Patience will be rewarded I think — 16 days ago
