White flowers and muted citrus on the nose. Medium bodied, good mid-palate energy, yet quite sour and feels a little thin. Interesting rather than enjoyable.

Slightly darker than straw yellow in colour. Honey suckle and tropical yellow fruits on the nose. Medium bodied, quite viscous, no shortage of acidity, and did not quite sing for me as the citric notes reminded me of Tutti Frutti sweets from when I was a kid. I found it a bit heady and lacking in freshness.

This wine followed the Fausoni for me and seemed very 1D by comparison. Tannins seemed a little thin, the wine quite dilute, and it was evocative of a Bourgogne Rouge (not quite sure why it is held up so high by other diners). [N.B. my original note was lost, so to be considered a general impression rather than TN]

Garnet. An ethereal nose showing classic tar and roses. Just over medium bodied with substantial yet velvety tannins. There's serious concentration and beautiful red fruit with a lovely balance and iron filings evident on the finish. A very complete wine. Definitely early and pre-window but fun to try now. This was decent when I tasted it on release, and it is just as good as I remember, if not better. Perhaps the best WOTN although I voted it second, perhaps because it seemed to fade a tiny bit. [Edited to move it up to 95 points as upon reflection, it's deserving].

Crimson in colour. Old books, leather and red fruit concentrate on the nose. Quite drying tannins and considerable midpalate concentration. Whilst perfectly pleasant to drink now, I cannot see this evolving into something appealing, at least for my palate.

Slightly closed yet lifted nose. Gorgeous tannins somehow interweaving silk and fire, delicious red fruit, so much energy and verve. Really compelling. My WOTN.

Warm inviting red fruited nose, light to medium bodied, lovely mouthfeel. Nice but was somewhat unremarkable in the context of a vintage horizontal.

I've had this wine before and loved it. Yet this bottle seemed very different. Nose was unremarkable and the mid-palate seemed to lack concentration and I could not find any energy or positive attributes, which is not to say that it tasted bad or off or faulty. Seems a bit too early to talk about bottle variation, however given the artisinal (and possibly rustic(?) production), who knows?

Nose shows red fruits, sandpapery tannins and seems to lack concentration. Not a patch on their 2018s where GianLuca Colombo was retained.

A little muted on the nose. Four square with good concentration and Vietti shaped tannins (no chalk) with a little wood and crunchy delicious red fruit. Well made.

Quite an airy nose. Medium bodied, red fruits, a little spice, good energy and seems very precise. My third favourite WOTN.
