  November 11, 2018 - Showing some ageing on rim. Very ripe brambles on nose with definite funkiness. Notes of truffle and forest floor. Palate has light tannins, some medium acidity to provide some freshness but palate showing some age. Little fruit; some redcurrants. Drink now.

  May 20, 2018 - Decanted 30 minutes. After concerns over previous bottles, this wine is now coming round to deliver a fine Nebbiolo wine. There remains the faintest of “funk” on the nose, but there’s plenty of fruit and great balance to the wine. Drink now-2021.

  March 15, 2018 - Needs at least an hour of air to open up. Starts pretty tight and firm. Red and black cherry, strawberry, earth, a little new leather, red and black licorice, herbs, and some floral elements on the nose. Red cherries, tart cherries, a little plum, earth, and hints of herb, flowers, and aged wood on the palate. Delicious when it hits its sweet spot.

  February 17, 2018 - This was better last year. Still a nice bottle but starting to fade. My last but I would drink up if you have any.

  April 15, 2017 - Based on other's notes I expected this one to go down the sink or be saved for cooking but I was extremely surprised. Intense nose of cherry and strawberry with faint floral hints in the background. The palate followed the nose with a medium+ length finish. A very, very good wine that I am glad I opened. This is drinking well and offering a lot of pleasure.
