  April 8, 2023 - Drank better than the bottle I tried 6 months ago but still wasn't that great. Lacked structure and body to counteract the high acidity and sandy tannins. Not very fruit-driven but also not too much other stuff going on.
  
  Wouldn't say it was a bad wine but I'm having a hard time learning to love this particular wine of Brancaia.

  February 22, 2023 - Agree with both prior reviews posted. The aromas are of mostly dark berries and the flavor is mostly dark berries as well but with a hint of chocolate. Tannins are a bit drying but ok as provide a solid base for the fruit. It was much better after two nights open and decanting as the fruit was more present and a nice finish of 5-10 seconds appeared. This young wine will improve with another year or so in bottle.

  January 25, 2023 - Scorched, oily nose over dark berries and toast. Spiced, flavourful palate with good weight and balance; finishes well.
  3.5/5

  November 11, 2022 - CBCC fall wine tasting.
  
  While aromatically the wine is better than many, there is nothing much here in the nose. In mouth it feels dusty (thanks to the tannin), and drying. Aromatically (though hard to find) it is bright and smells lively with fresh fruit but that does not translate into the taste. Initially quite acidic and that acidity maintains through to the finish at an almost uncomfortable level. This wine is way too young right now. If opening I would allow 2-3 days of air before sampling.

  July 17, 2022 - Bright red fruit with balsamico notes. Tannins quite present, holding the flavours at bay. Medium body. Easy to be enjoyed.
