Ripe fruit, dark cherries, blueberries, fresh acidity is still there. The oak has softened and the wine balances the creamy ham pasta we had tonight. One bottle left in the celler and should be consumed within a year.

Mature, rich, well composed wine. Smooth and velvety, deceptively straightforward - until you catch the subtle black pepper and cassis flavours. Very good w game!

Opened and sealed with Argon preservative gas for almost 2 weeks and it works! Even though the wine to my memory was better directly after opening this wine is still drinking perfectly acceptable after such a long time opened. That's my takeaway of this note. The wine itself i will not rate or comment on as it's been opened for too long to be a fair representation of the wine. All I can add is that it's good and drinking well but no need to rush.

Open for business, although I'm sure one can store this wine for 2-4 more years, but maybe not more than so. Just slightly tannic. Sweet, and obviously an Italian blend which includes cabernet sauvignon. Beats most average wines from Bordauxs and sells at aproximately halft the price. I would have rated this 92 if it had not been a little bit too sweet.

Very rich and fruity. A real nice bottle with lots of black currant and a nice finish.
