5/3/2017 - jjlobi Does not like this wine: 80 pointsPopped and poured. No finish at all. Just disappears. Very simple wine. Almost tastes diluted. 2nd day a bit better, but not much. Needless to say I'll pass on this one. |

1/3/2018 - jjlobi Likes this wine: 87 pointsA rather easy drinker. Drinking it as a stand alone was fine. Tannins give it a nice firm body and decent finish. Not overly fruity. Good balance. Will keep on my buy list. |

11/17/2019 - jjlobi Does not like this wine: 82 pointsA definite food wine. Definitely much better when paired with a grilled meat. As a stand-alone there an after taste that is unpleasant. Clearly needs to open for a couple of hours. |
