    July 7, 2021 - Over the hill, Despite having some hope it might still be good. I have had this one in it’s prime and it was delicious.

    November 12, 2018 - The first bottle was over the hill, the second bottle was still in decent condition. Markedly dark golden color on the glass. On the nose very ripe fruited and mature with some oxidative notes. On the palate likewise very rich and ripe - early on quite soft but the acidity did manage to pick up with some time. Has lost most of its youthful freshness but definitely has not gone flat. While drinkable still it does not offer that great of an experience at this point on its own but the oxidative notes help it work with creamy dishes quite well.

    April 10, 2016 - Oxidised. Much darker than my previous bottle. Completely different wine. DNPIM.

    December 12, 2015 - Drinking wonderfully now. Beautiful light gold colour, long and vibrant. Garganega to the max. 17.5

    May 19, 2014 - Nice white fruit (peach, slight citrus), nice acidity. A little tight
    but lingering finish. Really enjoyable.
