December 29, 2023 - This is very beautiful classic claret, rich and opulent, with some complexity. But note: it requires at least four hours airing in the decanter. Six is even better. Drunk too soon, it is overwhelmingly tannic. I expect it will be long lived.

May 3, 2023 - I like this wine, dark colored and heavy wood on nose. Quite complex but for my taste the wood is too prominent and takes a bit from the fruit. Hope will come together within 2 years. Nice everyday wine
