Colour is mid Ruby red. Dusty cherries, savoury cherry pip, a touch of menthol. Thought there were hints of caramel oak but I note it was fermented in stainless steel at controlled temperature. Malo in vats of cement, stainless steel and wood (large bottis I would imagine).Good structure for a Rosso - silky tannins. Very enjoyable and a great match with Fettuccine. Drank another bottle 16 weeks later on 1st December 2022 with consistent notes. Drank another bottle on 30th May 2023 - Sweet Cherry , medium weight, more savoury than fruit driven. Also notes of fennel and menthol - tannins M plus but the wine Is young. Drinks as a Rosso, nothing more. — 4 years ago

Love this wine every year. Great nose and palate of white flowers, honey/honeysuckle, stones, a hint of tropical fruit and some underripe nectarine. So easy to drink and great qpr. — 5 years ago

Violet pink rim , violet ruby core. On the nose lovely rose and red cherry notes. On the palate more of the red cherry , some darker fruits and a mineral backbone .. very nicely balanced acidity , ripe fine slightly bitty tannins . Good length. Overall elegant and rewarding , and will improve over a couple more years . — 7 years ago

Agree with Ashley Lanie. So much complexity here for $24 on the shelf. Merlot, Sangiovese, Syrah, and Cabernet. Leather, tobacco leaf, and baking chocolate all wound up in a robe of juicy cherries and red berries. Nose is super mature. Sangiovese explains the acidity. Wine is drinking great! — 6 months ago

Mistakes at least 30 to 40 minutes to open up fully and when it does it is absolutely lovely. It tastes a lot like a pinot, white and fruit forward. — 6 years ago

The initial taste was candied but quickly turned to tart red fruit The earthy element and light body reminded me of a Pinot. Not a Burg 🤔 — 6 months ago

Bright yellow gold. Inviting nose and big rich palate of plantain, yellow lilies, baked apple, and cinnamon bark plus a little orange peel on the entry. Medium minus plus acidity asserts mostly back palate and finish. Wonderful layers of flavor and opulent richness compensate for the lowish acidity making this a wine to pair with only the richest dishes: seared scallops, duck confit, grilled lobster, etc. Drink now through 2024. — 4 years ago

The Syrah adds a nice sweetness and balances well with the dryness of the Merlot. Berry undertones. Nice to pair with sharp cheese or flavorful stew. — 5 years ago

9.4

Vibrant, limpid, ruby. Initial nose of cranberry, bitter raspberry pip, irony mineral tones, tea roses. With air gains a pomegranate and slight beety note as well as some petrichor. Energetic palate with lively acidity. A good foil to salmon cakes with homemade tarragon mayo and Yukon golds persillade. — 6 years ago
