Some good tertiary flavors. Tar, roses, forest floor and empty cigar box. Muted red fruit character and leather as well. Well integrated and smooth tannins.

Jun 5th, 2024Wine was past its best. Tasted more like a ok Nebbiolo. No aging notes of leather or that beautiful garnet brick color. Very disappointed we had this at least 5 years, would had drank a lot sooner if I knew!

Nov 3rd, 2020Nice wine. Very much enjoyed drinking it. Did seem to lack the leather notes I was expecting— was more fruit forward with this one

Aug 8th, 2018A dark plum colour, delicious and aromatic with rich tannins and characteristics of flowers and stewed plums on the nose, the palate enjoys significant acid with a long, strong, earthy finish. Paired wonderfully with a hearty veal tagliatelle.
