October 8, 2022 - Rough and sort of aggressive, did not improve much with air. Doubt will get close to '06 or '04

October 16, 2019 - Bulgarian wines - Have the blockbusters improved ? (Wineground Bottles&Beans - Varna): Privat showed nice again, lean muscular body, no fat, nice blubbery from the CS, tannins solid but accessible, this need to age further.

December 21, 2017 - This is getting better, decanted for an hour, full bodied and massive, interesting fruits component - think cornel, aronia type of berries that I spot for the first time. Still in the fruit phase and will need more time to develop tertiary aromas. Keeps me happy the direction it is heading to, next try in 2y.

January 9, 2017 - Haven't opened a bottle of this in a while, it is nice to see consistency here, juicy, velvety ready to go with a little decant say 30 mins, but the better of this wine is yet to come for me, probably will hit it with 10y of age.

September 18, 2015 - Decanted for 2 hrs, luscious at opening, came down a bit after some time. I see the first sings of maturation in the good direction. Dark fruits and some olive oil, good balance, well appreciated on the dinner table.
