Very good but needs more cellar time (3-5 years). The tannins are still too dominating.

10/20/2023 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Decanted for two hours. Very pleasant wine. Nice fruit and soft tannins. Not very complex.

10/14/2023 - Tony T Likes this wine:

No decanting. Tannins are still too dominating, but has a lot of potential. Another try in two years?

9/30/2023 - Tony T Likes this wine:

No decanting. Nice, layered, full-bodied, but not heavy. Drinks very well already, but no hurry.

9/29/2023 - Tony T Likes this wine:

This wine has a lot of power. Should match perfectly with meaty Italian dishes.

Very nice, but tannins are still surprisingly prominent.

Decanted for about two hours. Showing very well already. Nice fruit and surprisingly well integrated tannins. The best Clerc Milon I have had so far. Very enjoyable.

Good quality for the price. Nice fruit and tannins. Not very complex. Good ”weekday wine”.

Needs more cellar time to reach its full potential.

This was a very positive surprise. Excellent match with the Chateaubriand dinner. At or close to its peak condition.

3/4/2023 - Tony T Likes this wine:

A bit one-dimensional, but quite nice. Affordable.

3/3/2023 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Needs time to open. Almost requires food.

2/22/2023 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Did not meet our expectations. Usually this wine never disappoints. Unrecognizable.

2/3/2023 - Tony T Likes this wine:

This just keeps improving.

12/16/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Very pleasant and discreet. Opened up nicely after 1-hour of decanting.

12/2/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Decanted for 1 hour. All the elements are there, but I agree with other recent postings that the wine appears to be a bit closed at the moment. I will wait a couple of years before opening my last bottle.

11/25/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

This has improved considerably! Drinks nicely but no hurry.

11/26/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Excellent and drinking very well right now.

10/8/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Fantastic, close to its peak condition, but no hurry at all to open one.

9/17/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Very nice already, but will improve once the tannins soften a bit more.

9/3/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Young, fruit-forward with blackcurrant dominating. Relatively soft tannins. Will improve during the next 2-3 years, I think.

8/20/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Signs of oxidation, fruit disappeared. Disappointing compared to the high expectations. Dried out cork. I hope my last bottle will be in a better shape.

Dined with friends at a restaurant in Helsinki. No formal notes. The wine complemented very nicely our fish-based dishes. Nice fruit, very discreet level of oak.

5/6/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

This bottle was purchased from St.-Emilion during our trip to Bordeaux in 2016. 80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc.
Nose is open and expressive with black currant. Full-bodied, but not heavy, nice fruit with ripe black currant and soft tannins. Very enjoyable and matched perfectly with peppery tarragon chicken.

3/20/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Very nice and good quality for the price. Requires long decanting.

3/12/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Fruit forward, soft tannins. Pleasant. Drinks very well already but no hurry with this one.

3/6/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

My last bottle was slightly past its peak condition, but still very good.

2/19/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Decanted for about 1 hour. Very pleasant and probably close to its peak condition. No signs of tiredness.

Good quality for the price. Fruit forward. The coconut/chocolate taste is maybe a bit too dominating at this stage for my palate.

Very nice Barbaresco at its peak.

1/30/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Magnum bottle. Decanted for 3 hours. Very atractive nose. Good fruit and integrated tannins. Very nice and ready to drink.

1/22/2022 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Very nice and good value.

12/3/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Very pleasant Chianti Classico Riserva. Good fruit, medium to full bodied. Very nice with Italian tomato-based pasta sauce.

11/20/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Very nice already, but I will wait a couple of years before opening my last bottle.

11/12/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Classic.

11/13/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Tannins still very much dominating, but good fruit underlying. Needs time.

10/16/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Very nice, but oak dominating the palate at the moment.

9/10/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

This was a very nice, but not great bottle of Barolo. Best with food.

9/3/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Decanted for 2 hours. Very nice. Full-bodied, fruit forward, very long finish, but not very balanced at this stage.

8/26/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

This has clearly improved and gained more complexity compared to my previous bottle about a year ago.

8/25/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Excellent!

7/18/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Dark yellow in color. Took a while to open up. Nice, clean discreet nose. Good fruit, presence of oak, but not overpowering. Very nice with grilled fish.

7/17/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Very enjoyable and good quality for the price.

5/7/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

This is quite impressive and rich wine. Should be combined with red meat. Our chicken dish was a bit overpowered by the wine.

4/2/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Very nice but still too young. A lot of potential. Good QPR.

Good fruit, low acidity, a bit flat and boring.

3/21/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Decanted for 4 hours. As expected, this wine is still at an adolescent stage and tannins are overpowering. It has all the elements in place to become an enjoyable Barolo. Needs 3-5 years of further cellaring. Good quality for the price.

3/19/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Decanted for 2 hours. Drinks very well right now with nice dark berry flavour and a pleasant hint of charred meat. Soft tannins. This wine is still so full of energy that it will no doubt improve during the next 2-3 years.

Slightly corked

3/7/2021 - Tony T Likes this wine:

Decanted for about 1.5 hours. The bottle had quite a lot of sediment, so be careful when decanting. The wine is still pretty closed with high level of tannins. Should be cellared for a couple of more years.
