January 4, 2009 - Nice nose - leather, funk. On the palate, very angular and tight. Really tight and hard as nails down to a ferric note. Even on the second day when the fruit had emerged (and it was some nice jammy and tart fruit), the structure was still impenetrable and ominous. In the end, the wine gets respect if not really delivering pleasure. Very interesting compared to the pre-release tasting.

May 29, 2008 - Wines of Cyprus; 5/19/2008-6/10/2008: (Bottled, but not released.) A bit of spritz from bottling CO2 which gives a slightly off-texture - dissipates and resolves to a big fruit nose with Lefkada funk, leather and spice. Plenty of power. Nice acids, if a bit narrow on the palate. Good precision on the body and very nice structure with the leathery notes holding the fruit in check. Persistent finish with some smoke and fruit dry-down. Good and has a character.
