March 17, 2017 - More concentrated and complex than your usual Chianti Classico. Deep cherry and chocolate notes with earthiness and black pepper spice. Robust tannins but they balance the wine well.

November 19, 2016 - Rouge brique, légèrement évolué. Nez d'abord discret, puis qui s'ouvre sur des notes de cerise, prunes, chocolat noir, violettes, eucalyptus. Arômes tertiaires présents, notes animales et tabac blond. La bouche suit, équilibrée, avec des tanins fondus mais encore bien présents. Présente une certaine complexité et pourrait évoluer sur 4-5 ans, bien que déjà très agréable maintenant.
