    January 26, 2024 - Light to moderate body with red fruit on the nose and palate. Pleasant but does not have the power I am used to with wines of the Mount Etna area.

    December 15, 2023 - good potential but still way too young. a little bit uripe still,with seductive notes of blackberry, but missing the wonderful ashy-salty note on the palate I found in 2015 vintage.

    November 12, 2022 - this 2018 vintage appears to be a little bit uripe still, while confirming to be at the crossroad between Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo with notes of blackberry, but missing the seductive ashy-salty note on the palate I found in 2015 vintage. Next bottle in a year or two, not before.

    March 20, 2022 - We both thought it was ok. Maybe too acidic for us

    March 14, 2022 - Red cherry and some kind of mineral/herbal scent. Red cherry palate. Light body, minimal tannin, summertime wine.
