March 10, 2023 - Second bottle after the first was off. As expected it has has a rich/creamy texture back by a healthy amount of sweet vanilla oak. Still it retains nice elegance with ripe raspberry, plum, mineral and dried herb. Silky smooth and polished but needs cellaring.

February 2, 2023 - Agree with other notes regarding closed, high octane, …. Coravin’d a tasting alongside Saffredi 2016 and Sassicaia 2003. This was the least enjoyable on the table. Rambunctious, unweildy, poised to attack. This one needs a major pouring ritual or, even better, let it sleep 5-10 years.

December 14, 2022 - Very ripe and beautiful fruit. Well balanced but certainly rich and a bit much at this early stage. I’ll wait a few years for my next bottle and it wasn’t revealing much but clearly packed with goodness.
