February 3, 2024 - A dark, colour; dense, concentrated blackcurrant/blackberry fruit, with slightly burnt orange peel, volcanic minerality and a very long finish.

December 28, 2023 - Has a bit of a funky/rustic nose at this stage and we feel it needs time to shed that off. In an in between stage of its life, soft earthy and herby but also a bit out of place and lacks the elegance of both younger and older bottles and thus we suggest one let’s this age more. 90-91 for now but we have hope for it

September 29, 2023 - Tuscany WIMPS 2023 (La Trompette): Firstly i'd say the drinking range on CT stopping at 2023 is wrong - this can age a lot more.
Beautiful nose of dark fruit and modest oak spice. Palate consistent with the nose with deep dark fruit, some toastiness (but not sweetness) and good acidity. Good balance and improved with air. -

June 1, 2023 - Still can’t get into Italian wines. Wood and tannins dominate. Some tart cherry fruit. Age was nice.
