    November 27, 2019 - Gorgeous, quite rich but with tingly acidity and tannin. Blackberry and dark cherries, along with pepper and spicy oak. Lovely hedonistic wine that is drinking now. I think as it ages it will lose its fruit, O I recommend drinking now, though it's certainly got years ahead of it.

    August 8, 2015 - Surprisingly fresh and (almost) vibrant - and fresh for the vintage, This is a mature, full bodied and modern chianti with notes of chocolate and cherries, a roasted bandit, but not overdone. Stays alive even on the second day, still, i would not keep this for much longer. (Kandestederne)

    August 13, 2014 - Helt perfekt. Kan ane at den snart går ned.

    May 29, 2014 - oksideret. Stadig drikkelig, men ikke DKK250 værd. Så bliver det spændende at se hvordan flaske nr 2 er....

    September 5, 2013 - This has smoothed out a lot. Tart cherry fruit with a bit of road tar. I believe there are many Chiantis out there that deliver much more quality at a lower price than this one.
