October 22, 2022 - Matured at perfection, nice blend of Nero d'avola and Shiraz. Powerful and elegant. Fruit body that never concedes to jam or confiture notes, nice spice, soft tannins. Perfect for a good chat over dinner.

April 1, 2022 - Intense Ruby color. Nice red fruits, tobacco, vanilla. The shiraz gives subtle notes of spices and some sweetness to balance the austerity of the Nero d'avola. The 2012 vintage needs now some air to open.

August 19, 2021 - I correct my previous assessment that the wine has peaked (maybe a flawed bottle or me in a bad mood on last tasting) the wine is still fantastic and enjoyed every drop of it.

May 27, 2020 - See my previous notes. Wine has likely peaked and suggest drinking now. Best after aeration in the bottle or at least in the glass.

December 13, 2019 - One of my favourite wines. red fruits, spices, smooth tannins. I always liked all bottles I opened, sign of consistent quality. A must have in every cellar in my view.
