April 5, 2013 - Bill's Monthly Lunch - April 2013 (Vancouver, BC): Tasted blind – Ripe nose of grape juice, loads of black pepper and sweet dark fruits. On the palate this is soft and smooth with good acidity, soft tannins and more sweet fruit. Well-balanced and with good length. I’m usually not the biggest fan of Valpolicella but this was quite good. Very good.

December 27, 2011 - - Brick color - Very nice bottle, still with some life left. A little out of balance right out of the bottle, but opened beautifully. Great earthiness, leather and dried fruit (raisin). Depth of flavor masks high alcohol.

March 16, 2011 - On its way down, a bit tart and lacking much of the tannic structure I remember. Decanted and served immediately.

March 13, 2010 - Rich texture, opulent dark raisiny fruit with rolling tannins and a long, even finish. Served right out of the bottle with no filter or decanter. Minimal change after 1.5 hours open.
