December 30, 2021 - This is a huge wine right now. Not showing almost any sign of loosing the grip on his prime time. I think it can last 10 more years without any problem!
Dark intense red with a garnet hue, intense nose of tertiary notes like leather, earth, with still a little bit of fruits. In the mouth it's full bodies and magnificent, with smooth tanning and nice acidity. The finish is very long! -

May 18, 2020 - Oh my goodness... this is just an impeccably balanced wine. Pure, sublime acidity and a smooth palate with so much complexity. Not a huge wine on the nose but the palate is tight and focused and over the 2 hours of hang time keeps getting better and better. This is my first of a 12 pack and I will start drinking these up with more regularity. Just a thrilling, no holds barred expression of sangiovese that is very enjoyable to drink. Drink or hold another 3-4 years. Stunning
