  April 18, 2014 - Garnet and slight brownish in the glass. Blackcurrant, cherry, milk chocolate and a little vanilla in the nose that evolve significantly in the glass over short time. Juicy berry fruit in the mouth, soft chocolate, pronounced tannins, relatively long finish.

  April 18, 2014 - En lydefri vin. Chokolade i duften. Mørke bær i smagen. Dekanteret i 2 timer og smagt op mod en californisk Pinot Noir som den krøllede. Passede fint til Osso Buco Milanese med polenta. Ikke meget udvikling i smag/duft. Vil formentlig ikke blive bedre og holde samme niveau i 5 år.

  September 9, 2013 - Perfumy nose of red and dark fruit, elegant oaking, mushroomy earth, varnish and chocolate
  Fruity and supple on the mid-weight palate with perfumy character and some chocolate. Pretty lengthy.
  Rather nice Barbera. Good use of oak.
