  April 25, 2024 - another stunning wine from the team at Arietta. Deep and concentrated in the glass. Opaque purple core with red rim. Aromas of red and black fruit alongside fresh cut flowers. Balanced, but intense, this wine has great depth and character with a progression of fruit, earthy, and oak notes.

  March 4, 2023 - Notes of blackcurrants, plums, tobacco and spice and floral with hints of mint in the nose. Blackberries and plums in the flavor. Well balanced, medium to full-bodied, and a medium to long finish

  February 6, 2023 - SO much better than the first two bottles. Not sure what's up with the inconsistency.

  March 20, 2022 - Had a funky mossy taste, waited 2 days and it was still prevalent. Not sure if this is a defective bottle.

  May 20, 2021 - Too young. Has some nice flavors of dark fruit, cream, earthy undertones but needs time to come into balance. Acid and tannins are too prevalent, as is heat from alcohol, lending an unbalanced feeling to the wine. I could see this being a 90-92 range wine in time but right now it’s a bit ungainly.
