April 27, 2021 - My last bottle and a very good wine it is. Bright red fruit, silky tannins and a smooth finish. Very nice Tuscan wine with several varietals. My wife loved it with a three cheese penne pasta. I had a southwest style steak which was ok but not as good a match for the wine since the spices overpowered the fruit in the wine. But it was also a terrific match for some godiva dark chocolate.
November 22, 2019 - Last bottle, still going strong. See previous notes.
September 7, 2018 - excellent QPR. pleasant nose of some flowers and dark berries. Dark cherries, blackberry, mocha, modest tannins. Smooth and delicious.
November 9, 2017 - Consistent showing, see previous TN
November 2, 2017 - ripe cherries with a fair bit of alcohol with a lovely acidity delivering freshness
September 12, 2017 - Full throttle from opening. Drink now. Great qpr.
April 15, 2017 - Ce vin est toujours aussi satisfaisant. Sans prise de note, son boisé est fondu et laisse briller le fruit, qui est d'une grande fraicheur. Sa souplesse appréciable et son équilibre entre tous les éléments, ainsi que sa jolie longueur en font une valeur sure. Sera certainement apprécié de tous les convives!
January 21, 2017 - lovely fruit, well balanced, excellent QPR but I prefer the 2012 vintage, the 2011 shows more matter/substance and a touch more noticeable alcohol, the 2012 is more elegant and shows finer fruit
November 12, 2016 - My new, everyday drinker. Fantastic value.
October 2, 2016 - again delivering a fantastic QPR
