Picked this up on auction few months back for a sixer & change. Ladies & gents, this juice is in a beautiful place. More dark & full than I was expecting... but soft & round, acids / tannin practically gone, fruit still at the fore. Delicious with homemade tortellini.

Decent, enjoyable, but a bit past it's prime. This is on its downward trajectory so if you're holding on to any of these I recommend drinking soon. Fruit seems to have faded quite a bit. Acidity not very present. Herbal, tonic-ish characteristic. Still enjoyable but less so than I expected. Not particularly interesting either despite its "differentness".

Tired. Better with a little chill. Drink up or use for sauce.

Nice acidity, a gentle licorice tone, a bit light in style but the last glass felt deep and very satisfying . 91+pts.

Soft, some raciness right out of the bottle but the wine seems to fade pretty fast. Drink now.
