September 13, 2021 - Really lovely, completely mature with notes of earth and tea, but still some red fruits left. Mouth filling and super long on the palate. Somewhat ethereal. A pleasure to drink this well cellared wine

March 14, 2020 - Awful. Dried up piece of nothingness. No fruit left at all. Not even any tertiary flavors. What a waste of $500

December 12, 2019 - youngish purple color, soft plums on the nose with blue fruit notes, soft herb tones, on the palate plums with a hint of cherry, starting to dry a bit on the tail end of a good finish, a pretty wine that is nicely aged but as I often find with these Super-Tuscans lacking a bit in a sense of site.

August 16, 2018 - AUG 18 Ruby. Cassis, blueberries, spices, eucalyptus, nuanced, some spices nose. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, anise, spices, blueberries, anise, mature, long. bit dry, a very slight cork on this one. Before the cork taint got too intense. 91 at its very best.
