    January 4, 2015 - This bottle was not as good as the previous one, much darker in colour and on tawny caramel taste, but without fruit and with the acidity that has a bit more than a supçon of volatile. Hope the. Remaining two bottles are better

    May 30, 2014 - This was very good, closure to a tawny than vin santo. Toffee, nuts but also yellow fruits. Lovely.

    May 25, 2014 - Another night of Italian wines with friends (Downtown Cleveland): I thought this was the WOTN. In a great place. Dark brown in color. The nose is toffee, coffee, burnt orange peel and figs. Full bodied. On the palate, layers of figs, orange peel, brown sugar and spice. Nicely balanced. Good acidity. Seems like this should live forever but probably at least another 5 to 10. Wonderful wine.
