December 22, 2017 - Fully mature Chianti. Medium weight, fruit starting to fade a bit, just a hint of tartness with well-balanced acids. Drink up and enjoy.

October 28, 2016 - Read some earlier less positive notes but this bottle was pretty good. Deep colour when poured and left in the decanter for two hours. Classic Sangiovese nose. Rich peppery and smooth with a decent finish. Not bad at all.

April 2, 2016 - da una magnum. naso molto sangiovese, con il legno che si è integrato e armonizzato; frutta rossa e nera, ciliegia, prugna, fieno fresco, spezie. al palato discreto equilibrio e lunghezza.
