February 3, 2022 - I think I paid too much for this wine, but I still enjoyed it. More of a fan of his rosato. I think this one is a different representative of Nerello, and it shows unique, so I have to give it that. Definitely has some strength, and some tannic qualities, deep red fruits. Enjoyable, but for $80 bones, probs not $80 worth of wine. Sausage & cheese homemade pizza night.

May 3, 2020 - Énorme énergie dans ce vin. Nez très piémontais sur des notes balsamiques et fumées. Bouche très minérale avec un fruit croquant en milieu de bouche. Un vin très intellectuel qui devrait pouvoir bien vieillir avec une très grosse énergie

April 27, 2019 - Vibrant and stunning. The nose is so energetic - red berries, black cherry, and a savory, dark loaminess. The palate is rich with a glossy sheen and an impressive depth of fruity, mineral, and spice flavors. Beautiful.

March 3, 2019 - Superb. Electric, mineral, pure red berries, savory earth and garrigue, and plenty of oomph.

January 19, 2019 - Superb and electric. Red fruit and minerals and that something something extra. CR = Campo Re, a contrada near Randazzo.
