  September 23, 2023 - Low body, with a brilliant ruby color and a brick tonality in the rim.
  At the beginning, the wine shows itself closed, with no aromas flowing.
  After 10 or 15 minutes aerated in the glass, the wine shows delicate red fruit flavors, together with vegetal and slightly balsamics aromas, and toasted and spiced mature wood also.
  Swirling the wine, we immediately perceive a toasted and smoked bouquet , followed by underwood humidity and finally the black truffle charming.
  The taste is soft and silky, immediately it grows and fills the mouth with underwood tertiary flavors that remain in a long, long aftertaste.
  It's a perfect mature wine, round, well balanced and quite complex.

  October 31, 1999 - Light blood red/carmine colour. Firm. Good bouquet with some fruit left. Soft, but a lot of good acidity. Very vital wine.
