    October 23, 2019 - Holy grip Batman.... This could cellar forever, but the color says different. Dark with brickishness creeping to the edge of the glass. The taste profile does say it'll last- but upon review, a airator and a coffee filter... It's still is amazing but so much sediment! And sediment is fine as coffee filter didn't even erradicate. This could be too much for some as it was borderline for me. Still liked this, but don't know solution to it's puzzle? I guess drink earlier, a year to three.

    December 29, 2016 - Let me start by saying I opened this too early. If I had more, I'd wait 2-3 years at least. Dark fruits dominate the nose, with some wet earth and sage. These notes, along with a touch of leather, come through on the palate. Decent length, but nondescript, finish. This could evolve into a special wine...or it could just remain stuck where it is.

    Of dark fruit, shame they can't shine

    December 14, 2014 - Appearance: Bright and clear, it has medium ruby color, with legs.
    Nose: Clean, with medium (-) intensity aromas of red fruit such as cherry, plum and cranberry, herbaceous notes of tobacco leaf, oak notes of pine, sweet spice of cloves, kernel notes of chocolate. The wine is youthful.
    Palate: Dry with medium (+) acidity, the wine has medium (+) tannin, a bit gripping on texture, with medium (+) alcohol and notable warming sensation. Medium body, the wine shows medium (-) intensity flavors of red fruit such as cherry, plum and cranberry, oak notes of cedar, sweet spice of cloves. It has a short finish.
    Conclusion: Acceptable quality supertuscan with a fairly light nose showing reasonable complexity, the wine is essentially a Sangiovese varietal and showing typical characters, with good acidity but also high alcohol. The palate is equally unimpressive with a fairly short finish. Nothing worth to highlight, it is ready to drink now and not intend for further ageing.
