    July 22, 2022 - Surprisingly, from a .750 still drinking well. Good fruit, dark color, popped and poured. Smoky, dark fruit-filled finish. My last bottle but exceeded expectations Smoke em if you got ‘em!

    February 17, 2022 - Magnum! Notwithstanding the size of the bottle, which fed my hopes the wine would excell by now: vinegar! A pity…

    February 3, 2019 - Deep red color. Aromas of black fruits, graphite and wood spices. Ripe, well-balanced fruit in the mouth with excellent depth and length and nicely integrated oak and tannins. Very intense and persistent on the palate. This impressive wine reminded of a very good Chateau Haut Brion. Still in sweet spot of drinking maturity.

    December 22, 2018 - Rubinrød kant, svart kjerne. Parfyrmert, blomster, svarte bær, lakris. Vanvittig syre, men likevel flott balanse. Bra lengde. 1997 Foradori, Granato, Terral dego 91-92 p Dette er dritkult. Fremstår som en ungfole, og nærmer seg pensjonsalderen.

    November 10, 2017 - Deep purple color with no signs of age in the glass. The nose was rich with dark fruit, plums and dried prunes/raisins especially; with a touch of mint. Very well integrated tannins, moderate acidity and a silky smooth mouth-feel with a long dark fruit finish that revealed tar, mint and spices. This wine is still beautiful and not showing any sign of falling off - mature, yes; but definitely still has a window of excellence ahead for bottles properly stored.
