November 8, 2020 - Big, ripe, nice acidity, really special and delicious. I gave this no time to open up and it’s already great, excited to see how the night unfolds in the glass as I can already sense the improvement after a few minutes of air.

April 24, 2020 - Spicy Sangiovese, balsam, coffee, intense. It needs to be drunk well chilled or it loses freshness. Still young. Rather acidic. Distinctive and interesting. I paired it with roast tenderloin of bison with red wine (Merlot) sauce but the acidity was too much for the match.

April 12, 2020 - This wine is spectacular. Must decant for at least 3-5 hours. Built to last and plenty of runway ahead. Will revisit this in 3 years. Powerful, elegant, long finish. Tannins still have plenty of grip and bite, but manageable at this point. Beautiful and getting better!

February 17, 2020 - July 2018: Had with grilled steak etc. Beautiful wine. Decanted an hour, then poured back in bottle minus one glass and let it evolve there for another 2-3 hours. Drank well after the first hour, and great throughout the night. OK before dinner but calls for food. Elegant, polished, silky, pure Sangiovese fruit, integrated acid and tannin. 96.
