    October 7, 2022 - Decanted with duck. Still needs time.

    July 26, 2022 - Gave my first bottle a 92 after pop and pour. Second bottle was much better after a 6 hour slow ox, call it 93+.

    June 7, 2022 - Richer and more intense fruit, modern in this regard, but no oak and still the sappy green vegetal energy of a more old school producer. Happy medium. Also still cherry cough syrup though the tannins have a bit of a heavy edge

    April 30, 2021 - Un vrai vin de repas. C’est merveilleusement accordé avec le spaghetti bolognese. Typique italien, avec une belle acidite, mais sans le repas, on ressent un peu de chauffe.

    January 10, 2021 - A good wine, but not great on its own. This is due to the acidity up front and the tannins and some bitterness on the finish. A structure-driven wine. Much better with food, and went quite well with lasagna.
