November 26, 2017 - Mais quel beau Bordeaux blend nature fait façon Italienne!! Il émane un parfum envoutant de cerises noires, de mûres, d'épices et cette impression de grande fraicheur...s'ajoute une jolie trame florale avec l'aération. En bouche on a une très belle acidité qui dirige le tout avec droiture, c'est enveloppant, complexe et digeste à la fois. Le corps est moyen et les tanins très fins. Il s'étire longuement pour notre plus grand plaisir!

December 17, 2015 - Intéressant assemblage bordelais à saveur sicilienne. Hautement buvable et bien fait. Bravo!

August 16, 2015 - Impressed by how much this wine evolved in the glass. It starts with a nose of blackberry and plum, smoke and a taste of prunes and savoury note when just poured off the bottle. After a few minutes it changes dramatically: the black fruit notes mellow down and more chocolate and floral notes develop. Medium body with very fine tannins and a nice acidity to balance the alcohol. Extremely persistent finish

August 28, 2014 - The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like red currant, grapefruit, mineral, light toast, black pepper and bell pepper. It tastes like mineral, stoniness, artichoke, bell pepper and alcohol/hot. The body is medium. The wine has leathery texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has high acidity.
It has been a great discovery and is now one of my favorites. Will keep Always a few bottles in my cellar of Maldafrica!
