March 1, 2024 - Ivy Sommelier tasting (Mumu, George Street): The boys are back in town; begs protein after a paltry 13 years of aging. Super yum for me with the acid, tannins, plums, dried flower and herb notes all present and in balance. Plenty of time left here

December 15, 2023 - Brief decant. What struck me most was how powerful the aglianico is (tannic, smoky, high alcohol) yet how Seet the fruit can be.
Medium nose of violets, cherry, farmyard, leather, smoke, licorice. This wine is developing.
Palate dry, med+ acidity, ripe smooth tannins, full body, higher alcohol. Flavors intensity med with med+ finish. Drink now or hold for further aging.
Ideal with beef.1 person found this helpful Comment -

March 26, 2022 - During an Italian walkabout tasting, so only short impressions. Aglianico grape varietal. Expressive nose of farmyard, some dark fruit. Medium bodied, elegant mouthfeel. Unfortunately the tannins feel drying on the finish, preventing a higher score. 91

November 12, 2021 - Reasonable restaurant purchase. Recalling bigger body than the eye or palate weight would lead you to believe.

Will hold or improve but beautiful right now.1 person found this helpful Comment
