August 4, 2015 - Stored in a 16 degree natural cellar; aerated into the glass by Centillino. Red-brick, pale meniscus and fifty legs or so. Vanilla, smoke and wood to the nose with red berries. Good structure to the palate. Long astringent finish. Pairs well with Hungarian winter salami, cerigbola olives, Compte, Asiago and baguette. Background arias are a big bonus!

September 1, 2014 - Exactement ce que me fait tripper dans le merveilleux monde du vin!!! Un bon vin à l'achat sans être "impressionnant"...on l'oublie pendant 3-4 ans...on l'ouvre et la complexité est décuplée... ça explose de saveurs, de longueur, de fruits mûrs, de cuir...le 25$ investi initialement m'en donne pour le double...Vraiment excellent!!!

August 11, 2012 - Drinking just perfect now. Wasn't sure what to expect - my other notes were a little all over the place, but i really appreciated the rich complexities now. Nose has nice cedar/dark fruit/light oak. Palate is full bodied, lots of lush dark fruit that is encased in a light "cigar box" type quality. Some light notes also of a vegatial quality. Nice and smooth with light and well placed acid/tannin. Finish is long with similar notes ending on a slight smokey note. I would say that now 5 yrs on, this is delivering for price point. On the shelves currently is only the '09 in stores, but if you can find some older vintages i would buy them up.
