  7/13/2020 - Tim Heaton Likes this wine:

  Very good. My third time with this now since it was released. I loved it then, I love it now, and I've loved it in between. I'd be in N. Rhone in a blind, do I need to really say any more? Rustic at times, feral almost. Another glass may pour more elegantly, more refined. Then it switches it up again; love it. Dark red, some black fruit, meat, game, forest, savory. Boom. More complete on day 2. 14,0% abv. Now, and next 4-6 years. highly recommended

  Académie des Cinquante Tuscany Tasting (Buitenplaats Amerongen / Restaurant Bentinck, Amerongen, NL): Jammy and come-hither fruit on the nose, stables, warm spices; juicy and lively palate with lots of sweet fruit, peppery and fresh, finely grained tannins grow firmer with oxygen; good resonance and length.

  Vinitaly 2016; 4/10/2016-4/13/2016 (Verona, Italy): The fruit is brighter, black fruit, tobacco, a few flowery notes, the alcohol is evident again, lacks in body and concentration, short to medium black fruit finish, the oak is more upfront.
