Clean dark red --- Nose fresh, red fruit, mint, sour cherries, elegant wood notes, black cherry jam, touch of nice green aspects --- Palate fresh, watery, a lot of fruit coming through, red and black fruit, cherries, red currant, raspberry, some blackberry, excellent acidity adding freshness and vitality, some flowery aspects --- Finishes pretty long on black fruit flavors, nice acidity flashing back, nice tartness. Very nice vine, precise, delicious and classy. 93+

Big, voluptuous, smoked wood type of Bordeaux that has the depth of fruit to support the super woody, smoky notes. It feels like it survived a forrest fire. Very nice, bold, big, delicious merlot wine with distinct cabernet franc influence. Everyone liked this! Will buy more...Drink now, its at perfect peak.

Black, some red shimmer --- Nose fire stone, burnt wood, red currant, some cherry, some ash, some violets, flowery aspects, earthiness, balsamic notes, some licorice --- Palate watery, acidic, very nice tart and sour notes, which are so elegant, reminds me of Galardi´s 2007 Terra di Lavoro so much, some bacon, cherries again, minerals and ash dominant in the first place and then fruit arises, overall elegant and classy --- Finishes rather long on its beautiful tartness, fruitiness and minerals. This one is a statement or as Gloria Ganor sang " I am what I am". The combination of a bold character and freshness and fruitiness is impressive. A little bit too much on the smoky side. Gaining deliciousness with aeration. Excellent vine. Drink now and coming 2 years.
