April 26, 2009 - With strawberries and very, very old balsamic vinegar. A wow!! combination. Perfect balance.

October 30, 2008 - Tasting of Italy by the DRC-club (Brugweg - Velp): This is a very good sweet Italian wine. But now it was tasted alongside d'Yquem 1995. Not a fair comparison, and it shows... Alongside such a great wine, this wine is everything it should not be, I call it chew-gum-wines. I know this is absolutely not fair, but there it is. So... just don't drink it alongside wines like d'Yquem!

September 20, 2008 - Delicious wine, very subtle, not too much (as so many Pantelleria's are). Very good with blue cheeses (we had an excellent Gorgonzola and a Saint Agur). Quite a meditative wine.
