Really well made, harmonious wine. Balanced and polished nothing really sticks out but at the same time it remains very drinkable. Enjoyed with Vitello tonato in the sun — 5 days ago

9.4

Medium garnet , wide light garnet rim. Touch volatile at first , high toned summer fruits , but with more time this becomes more focused with porcini, cedar , aromatic black tea , orange rind . On the palate this is really still very fruit driven , with lots of summer fruits , strawberry , blackberry , spiced dark cherries, beef extract , liquorice and dried rose . Balanced acidity and still quite present gritty tannin . This is still showing quite young and fruit driven , enjoyable and really good now , will no doubt have a long life ahead , from now and over the next 10 - 15 years . — 4 months ago

Spectacular wine. Best to let sit 90+ minutes before drinking. Evolved nicely over several hours. Balance of richness and mature but lively fruit. Will be even better in 3-5 years. — 9 days ago

Mature but still with legs. Earthy, mushrooms, weighty. Solid but a bit underperforming for me. — 3 months ago
