Always very firm in its youth it’s finally drinking well right now with fruit, nicely developed round tannins and underlined acidity that’s there but doesn’t stand out (wouldn’t peg this as Italian in a blind tasting and probably not old world). — 6 years ago
Intermédiaire entre un Bordeaux et un grand Corbières , un boisé discret et une grande ossature. Grande bouteille — 10 years ago

Blinded, I thought this was a Left Bank Bordeaux. I’m useless with Bordeaux blends. Felt Cab-dominated with the obvious pyrazine notes. Vintage-wise, I was going between 2015 and 2018, so not far off. Youth and ripeness were the clues. Wine-wise, not exactly what I like but I thought it was solid. Plummy fruit, herbs, wood, earth, and some underlying minerality. — a month ago
