March 28, 2024 - Surprisingly good for the vintage - fruit, floral, nice, nice middle, long finish. Yeah, it was firing on all cylinders

Il a fallu le carafer pendant des heures pour l’amadouer.
Ce n’est plus vraiment mon type de vin surtout au niveau des prix actuels.
Pour les amateurs de « bordeaux blend » Bordeaux est repassé en tête, selon moi. -

April 1, 2023 - Decanted briefly. Young and lush with very tart backbone that balances the thick, pulpy body. Stellar effort from young vines, very Italian this vintage. Curious to see how this ages but it's fun now.

January 5, 2022 - Restaurant list from half bottle. Painfully young now but drinkable. Lush and intense. Long. Tannins quite fine but still no point opening in its youth.
