Smells sweet, and it's sufficiently rich on the palate that you don't feel let down when it's drier than you expect. Very attractive wine

Nutty, reticent - doesn't say much to me
Fresh and fizzing, more interesting than the 2012, but you have to pay close attention to get much out of this
High toned, grape and grapefruity, delicious, but curiously unvinous
This too was high toned and fruity, but unlike the 2011, cloudy and grippy too. Dellcious and interesting
Big, lush, nutty, buttery, with a big whack of acid at the end
Berried, round, sweet, lactic, sickly Unpleasant.
Powerful, sharp, edgy
Loaded with coconut sweetness, big and a bit sickly, but this grew on me; prickly and acidic and had presence
Porty, acidic. Unpleasant. Can't believe this is 100% stems. 75% merlot and 25% sangiovese.
Odd. Like a natural wine with slightly funkiness and soft texture. I didn't care for it
(see all 15 vintages)
