Drinking gorgeously right now. Nose still showing ripe dark red berry/cherry, with secondary notes of leather and mahogany furniture developing. also some warm gravel. Remarkable balance in the mouth. Fruit and acids, tannins resolving to a point of velvety softness. — 2 days ago

Unbelievably young but already smooth. Really fruity at this stage but will evolve nicely. Was hard to identify as a Supertuscan. Would consider buying some of this vintage and forgetting about it for 10 years... — 3 days ago

Solid red blend. But sold as full bodied, which it is not. Light drinking. Suitably dry. — 3 days ago

Dried fruit, dark cherry, even prune. A distinct difficult note, perhaps tobacco or leather. Bright acid, moderate tannin, maybe too bright — 18 days ago

9.2

Deep ruby color, leaning toward garnet.
Aromas of dark fruit, herbs.
Dry. Flavors of black fruit, chalk, peppercorn, lavender, smoke, dried herbs, licorice,. Rich, chewy tannins. Tasty, but will improve by waiting another 5 to 10 years (and more!).

Intensity: 4/5
Complexity: 4/5
Balance: 4/5
Finish: 4/5 — 14 days ago

2022 vintage. Durty dirty intro nose. Medium body. Grippy with little hedonism. Very businesslike. Should age effortlessly for a solid 20-spot. Woulda picked it up but surprising good in the Italian section in that price range. It's in the notes tho...do occasionally recall/pluck sin on sin a wine from time to time and commit. Could see this easily rolling into 9.5 territory within the next decade. 04.02.25. — 6 days ago

luscious, groovy, grand. Simply Mike-tastic. Notes of hope, redemption, currant, licorice, humid sunsets and candlelit dinners. A luxurious wine for luxurious company. — 10 days ago

Deep, dark ruby coloration. Almost black. No translucency. Heavy tearing. On the nose, dark cherry, blueberry, blackberry, currant, tobacco, forest floor and florals. On the palate, full body, lush mouth feel, strong minerality, with jammy black currant, anise, pepper, followed by a long finish of chocolate, forever, and hints of mint. Nicely balanced tannins. Outstanding wine. — 4 days ago

9.2

Tasted blind . Medium deep , garnet core , garnet rim . Quite sweet spiced nose , slightly deeper cherry , riper slightly less fresh . Black tea . On the palate this is deeper and richer , more extracted in style . Darker cherry , blackberry , quite high acidity but slightly drying tannins . This is quite intense and with lots of presence, reasonably long , dry spice , dried dark cherry finish . Really quite young . Needs more time , better in 3-5 years and will last well a further 5-10 — 21 days ago
