  August 26, 2021 - Spicy, very earthy nose with only the very slightest touch of brett which I find pleasant. Surprisingly light, elegant mouth. Maintains earthiness into the finish with moderate acidity. Reminds me somewhat of an Etna Nerello Mascalese but with even a touch more earth and without the sweet cherry notes. Both interesting and extremely enjoyable.

  September 27, 2019 - Had pretty high hopes for how this would age when tasted a few years back. The wine didn’t deliver according to my expectations this time as it has become more one-dimensional and with less complexity now, than four years ago. Still good and with a nice sea/salt/seaweed-charachter, but not as good as I had hoped.

  November 19, 2016 - On this occasion, bretty, reductive, gunpowdery, savoury; paired with Hermitage it could pass for Northern Rhone.

  June 16, 2016 - Nose obscured by reduction, with strong gunpowder scent. Too bad -- underneath a really pretty, lifted wine with red berries and charcoal on the back end. Distinctive.
