September 8, 2018 - Final bottle. Consistent with my previous two notes, perhaps a bit more tannic.

August 22, 2018 - Compared to my November 2017 tasting note, this remains very consistent. The nose, with its red meat-purple flowers-black fruit-cool minerality character, is open and attractive; the palate is well-balanced and mature, still fresh and lively, but relatively light in structure, weight and flavours; dried fruit on the finish, touch of vanilla, good length. Completely ready.

April 24, 2018 - My experience with this wine was really good.
I was not expecting very much but the wine with a little bit of airing delivered! It has evolved nicely to a fair complexity showing some floral and mineral notes besides the sweet plummy fruit and the Syrah spicyness. Had a nice soft and round texture, tannins were well integrated and it was indeed very tasty with a good lasting finish. Not ethereal but tasty and good. Could even develop further for a few more years. -

December 23, 2017 - Medium purple watery rim, leather and forrest floor, mushrooms, high acidity, medium plus body, intense black fruit palate, but disappointing short finish. I wasn't that impressed but good value for this price
