March 24, 2024 - Well this blew me away. Bright transparent garnet. Highly aromatic. Really superbly polished complex aromas, yes you get florality and cherry all the rest of it but it just comes across as its own perfectly knit whole. Glossy and liqueur like. A bit sharp on opening perhaps but that's what you'd expect. Hard to resist now although I expect it would get even better.

March 10, 2024 - Light garnet with some bricking on the edges. Fragrant roses and oak in the nose. Medium tannins. Leather, tar, roses, strawberries all meld beautifully in the flavors. Served with Osso Buco and a porcini risotto. Very pleasant wine. Long well balanced finish.

October 14, 2023 - Very floral nose, with ripe cherries and silky mouth feel. Tannins are fully integrated and lovely. Drinking well now.
