bit shy, needed some time in the decanter - translucent ruby colored, lots of violets and spice, sour cherry and bing cherry, rhubarb, tar, sweet soil, really complex on nose, med weight w/firm tannic grip, flavors from nose on mid palate, nice finish. paired with smoked ribs and it really worked - Father's day treat. i have another of these, believe this is in the pocket right now. *more Barbaresco than Brunello — 4 days ago

Beautiful wine. Dusty tannins. Black cherry with faint herbs. Probably would benefit from a decant — 16 days ago

2021 vintage. Last tasted 01.15.25 (9.3). Slightly more reticent than the last visit but still rocking the chunky vibe and hella value. 05.23.25. — a month ago

This bottle didn’t live up to the brand

Decanted for 1 hour before dinner.

Really needed food. This wine was dark and not enjoyable unless paired with rich food.

Overall - okay but not what I expect from this winery. Maybe an off bottle from auction — 4 days ago

Vintage 2020 | Elegant spicyness. High acidity that does not disturb at all with food. Paired with steak tartare, salad and frites. At Vin/Perdu in Oud Turnhout. — 19 hours ago

2019 vintage. Resto cost $40.10 a bottle on two 6packs. Woof. Drinking great now but could use 6 months-2 years to really decorate the place. 06.04.25. — 15 days ago
