  Aromas of blueberry pie upon first opening and checking bottle. After 5 hours decanting, nose evolves into tightly wound notes of creme de cassis, licorice, kirsch, pencil shavings, and Asian spices. Comes across just a tad hot on the nose, even at cellar temp...not a big knock, just has a touch of a tincture alcohol extract quality.
  
  Very plush palate, round supple and mouthcoating tannins.

  Good solid bottle but loses points when adjusted for value.

  Good bottle but I like regular Amici better. This reserve was not worth the hype

  A little over hyped. Nice deep purple color. It did get better with time in the glass. Enjoyed, but had bigger expectations. Will wait until 2021 to try remaining bottles
