September 3, 2023 - Last bottle of 12, PnP. Thought it's time to empty it before it is over the hill, but wow, it did again a step up compared to the last one. On the nose blackberries and black currant, liquorice and underwood, on the palate fresh, good depth and a very long finish. Classic Riserva in a very nice spot now, quite mature but without any signs of declining, it shows still a lot of life and there is no hurry to empty the last bottles.

June 3, 2022 - PnP, required just some minutes to open. Mature, classic Sangiovese, red fruited with tertiary notes, on the palate still with good freshness, medium+ bodied and long finish. In the style of the house with a rustic touch, in a good spot now, most probably it will not improve anymore, therefore drink it within the next 3 years to be on the save side.

April 5, 2021 - Perfect cork, well stored.
Fantastic to drink the same wine we enjoyed in Firenze in 2012. A lot has happened with this wine since.
The baby fat is off as well as the pink filtered glasses. Not a very good showing from quality POV.
But as a dinner companion, this is a modern Chianti that drinks with pleasure and without any kind of problems. Delicious acidity beat all the food we put on the dinner table.
Should be good for a number of more years.
If you prefer fruitf**kers, you're already too late on this ball. -
