November 11, 2013 - Weekly tasting group #096; A fully blind test. (@ AH): Intense bouquet with cassis and vanilla. On the palate dark berry fruits and cherries. Also some caramel. Firm amount of acidity and bitterness. Ready now, no hurry.

November 4, 2011 - Red fruits like cherries and raspberries. Compared to the Madonna Como 2008 this wine has more bitterness; don't know if that is because of the different vintage. Expressive wine with a long finish.
