December 1, 2022 - St Martin (Dutch side) Izy Italian restaurant. Light wine for a brunello and not quite up to par. No additional comments beyond "feels underripened" both on the nose and in mouth.

October 5, 2022 - A very versatile wine - great for dinners and even for cooking. By itself, it’s a bit acidic, but light and leaves room for that subtle cherry flavor. Great for a nice dinner!

November 3, 2021 - 전형적인 끼안띠 클라시코
타 끼클에 비해 산미는 좀 낮은듯
반병은 디캔팅해서 마시고 나머지는이후 병브리딩으로 마심
디캔팅 한 것은 너무 빨리 풀려버린듯
후에 병 브리딩으로 마신것은 거의 마지막잔에서 완전히 열림
맛있는 끼클이었지만 개인적으로 빌라안티노리가 더 취향 -
