Kept in a wine-coller at 13 degrees C. since september 2012. Open nose. In the taste a powerful fruit, a good acidity and some complexity. Although there was a lot of sediment and the mouthfeel was rather smooth, the last tannins may resolve further and might still improve this wine. The alcohol was 15%, but that was never disturbing. A bit rustic, but with real quality. This wine might benefit from one or even two years of further keeping. 93.

From memory- drank at Asti w/Pat and Jennifer. Medium to lighter body. Good balance of acid to structure. Nose is roses, used book store and licorice. Taste, licorice , red cherry and dirt. Medium finish. Drinking well now but has room for further development.

A dark garnet wine with a lighter body, and a nose of cherries and dried flowers. Soft, yet rich in the mouth, with tastes of cherries, and a hint of earthiness. Good structure and acidity. Showing realy nicely at this point in time. The finish had decent length. Very nice overall.

Tasty wine, but seems to lack the energy and/or elegance that I was hoping for. Don't get me wrong, it is good. But missing that wow factor. Seems to be very 2007 with ripe round fruit.
