July 11, 2014 - Para minha surpresa estava formidavelmente evoluído em relação ao primeiro.. Complexo, intenso, inicialmente redutivo e, após um pouco de ar, apareceram notas de especiarias, ervas, couro de cela e talvez algo de pelo de animal, tendo um belo fundo mineral.. Equilibrado, elegante, com fino sabor especiado, um toque picante e uma acidez não mais que bem suficiente.. Uma garrafa em pleno auge! Mas com certa suspeita de declínio à espreita.

October 30, 2013 - Bright red fruit nose, cranberries and pomegranate. Great depth and balance of pure red fruit, dried red cherries, soft dried herbs and a hint of cedar. Overall a great value wine...

June 26, 2013 - 100% Sangiovese. 14% abv. Bela cor cereja escura. Nariz ainda ligeiramente fechado e com discreta sobra de álcool, embora agradável, com fruta pura e bom frescor, tendo um mix de cerejas, ervas finas, um ótimo toque de mineralidade de solos calcários e uma sugestão de terra. Paladar fresco, seco, de corpo médio, com sabor de cerejas azedas, revelando uma leve tanicidade, tendo sutil amargor e um toque salgado. Ainda um pouco novo. Melhorou consideravelmente ao respirar em decanter por mais de 1h, mas creio que realmente ainda mereça pelo menos mais 1 ou 2 anos de adega.
