A really solid wine. Rich and robust. Dry but in a way that compliments a wonderful meal. — 9 months ago
Deep ruby hue. Notes of blackberry, olives, pepper, and tar. Full tannins and high acidity. Superb with meats. — 2 years ago
Big rich nose. Loads of spices and dark berry fruits. Mulberry as well and a dark earthy character. Brooding. Palate is enormously complex with awesome icing on cake texture and dazzling purity. So clean. Elegant for such a big boy. Concentrated with lovely sweet tiny berry fruit that is so explosive and fresh. Clean and ultra pure. — 5 years ago

This wine has evolved wonderfully over the last 10 years...
Dark macerated fruit notes, tossed wet earth, bloody/gamey meat, charred oak and balsamico. At age 20, all components have melted into this beautiful beasty boy and those chewy but well dosed tannines provide a great harmonious structure.
Well done! 👍🏻
Went super next to a plate of meatballs and ravioli. — 6 years ago
Sangiovese / sagrantino / montepulciano blend from hilltop vineyard, several years of tank and cask ageing but no new wood. Huge wine but somehow manages to be lively and dimensional. Dark, fleshy red and black fruits with lots of savory, herbal and floral elements — 6 months ago

The 2016 a big wine & ready to drink at its peak. Open and decanted for 30 minutes- plenty of acidity and structure. On the nose and on the palate, tart fruit- dark cherry and raspberry- and cardamon spice. After 45 minutes open the wine softened and opened beautifully. My estimate is that It should be drinking well through 2027. — 3 months ago
