November 9, 2013 - Imponerende at den har holdt seg såpass bra. God syre ingen tanniner, mørke bær, lær og kokt frukt.

January 9, 2011 - Interessant vin. Modig og fruktig på samme tid. Fat, lær og jord toner sammen med god frukt og syre.

December 5, 2010 - Bricking, yet fairly dark centre.
The smell is not as open as the previous bottle, this feels a bit closed. It smells like a maturing Barbera.. :) But it has some volatile acidity.
Once again it is the taste that shines; very earthy but with excellent acids. Meaty, lean body. Very transparent fruit with lots of minerality.
Excellent long finish.
