October 25, 2016 - veste ormai rosso granato, sebbene forse appena iniziata la fase leggermente discendente, riserva ancora piacevolissime sensazioni. Al naso il frutto surmaturo ormai impera, agrumi compresi, con punta balsamica e lievemente pepata, al gusto, lungo, salato e forse non elegantissimo, regala densità, polpa e struttura. Rapporto QP notevole

skurtz Does not like this wine:
April 28, 2012 - Mineral, berry, but a little too much acid "vinegar" finish. Too acidic at first, but after 20 minutes the acid mellowed out. A little. Karen pronounced it "turpentine." Three out of five stars.

September 23, 2011 - Bight ruby red with light aromas of raspberries and some spice. It was balanced, a little acidic and had a medium finish.
