Too young, wait another 4-5 years. Last glass opened a bit more after 3 hours. Cherry, plum, ripe fruit. Tannins too harsh for now.

Definitely not worth the price. No definition, boring nose, too acidic.

Pretty good value for the price. Ewa liked it much. Deep, red dark fruit on the palate. Shy but pleasant nose, fruit, floral. Would buy again.

Still very good but needs a lot of breathing. Didn’t really opened up before 1h. Light bodied, plum noise, crisp and fresh. To drink without food.

Disappointing. Been saving this one for a long time. Both nose and palate were of the fade side. There is much better NZ pinot out there that are less expensive

Full bodied, balanced acidity, we really enjoyed it. Was still holding up - could probably have aged a couple more years without any problems.

Very fruity- too much to my taste usually. But it was a fun drink nonetheless.

An ok Brunello at a fair price. Still pretty rough - open a couple hours prior to drinking. Would benefit from a good 3-5 years aging.

One of the best value for the price I know. If you like Zin grab this at all cost.

Still very good but lost some fruit. Still an incredible nose. So good.

My previous bottle was fade out… not this one. Incredible nose, round, fruity, it was impressive for such a cheap wine. I’ll store more for sure.

Probably way too old for what that wine can hold. Wasn’t flawed but was on the fade side. Earthy, almost grassy on the nose. Not much fruit left.

Incredible return for the value. Crisp, non-oaky, Sancerre like type of Sauvignon. Love it.

Not worth the price. Rough, undefined, not elegant. Fade nose. Will not buy again.

Not too much tannins. Really out of the ordinary. Fresh, crispy apple at first then after taste of grappa?

Acidity was too high, as was the astringency.

Very good value for the price; indeed better than the first bottle I opened a couple of years ago. Probably can age 2-3 years still.

Wow. This wine is a spectacular buy for the price. The wine seems to evolve over time, and is very atypical of what you probably know. Savagin gives unexpected results, but this is a success. The nose is very complex, changing slightly at each sip.

Not ready yet to drink, keep a couple of years still. The wine took at least 3 hours to open. At the beginning, the wine was smelling nothing at all; it was almost worrysome. Slowly, it began to open. Tannins are a bit harsh still; a couple of years will be good. However, you can already see this will be a great wine. Very expressive sweet nose, cherry, almost candy-ish. Long finish, very good.

Very interesting wine from Greece. Definitively, Greece is a region to keep an eye on. This wine is similar to a pinot; very expressive nose, mouthful of fruit, nice finish. At that price, you would be a fool not to stock a couple of bottles for later.

Everything produce by this vineyard is exceptional. This Chardonnay doesn't make exception. Quite complex bottle that requires a bit of breathing before showing up it's true self.

Promising nose but doesn't deliver. The wine stayed closed even after 1 hour of carafing.

Less impress than last time I had need. Maybe it needed a little more breathing?
