November 8, 2019 - Leathery tarry nose, blackcurrant and cassis, very much like that of old claret. Full bodied and lively, plumy, raisiny on the palette. However this was lacking any significant complexity. Peppery finish. Good, but maybe missed the peak as it felt a little one-dimentional.

October 6, 2018 - Aperto solo mezz'ora prima di servirlo in bicchieri molto ampi. Naso complesso ed intenso, decisamente Montalcino. Frutti di bosco e prugna, meno maturo di come me lo ricordavo, erbe aromatiche, anche medicinali, accenno di agrumi canditi, tostature quasi del tutto dimenticate. Grande equilibrio al palato con una freschezza magicamente "giusta" che dona una gradevolezza leggera, tannini perfettamente risolti che bilanciano la struttura, non più debordante come in gioventù. Finale avvolgente, che si distende sulle note fruttate ed erbacee.
Sorprendentemente giovanile in rapporto alla tipologia. Peccato fosse l'ultima bottiglia. -

May 26, 2017 - The last one of six bottles consumed since 2002. The first one 2004 had rich fruit and still a way to go. After 6-7 years more strong and high acid. Best ones after 8-10y with rich fruit and more balanced, score 93. The last one though surprisingly good fruit and balance even if it had lost The strength of her Youth.

December 26, 2015 - Interessante Nase, violette Farbe, guter Grip am Gaumen, schöne Tannin- Säure Balance, Aromen nach Rauch, Tabak, Speck, langanhaltender Abgang. 100 % Cabernet Sauvignon

February 5, 2014 - Dark crimson cabernet sauvignon. A classic son of the hot 2000 vintage.
Small acidity, silky and refined tannins, full-bodied but not heavy wine.
Cassis, cocoa, mocha and a long delicious finish.
Really mouth-coating.
Lacking complexity of a great Supertuscan, but really worth its price.
