Deep red. Musky cherry, fresh herbs, flint and licorice on the nose and palate. Rich, suave and large-scale but less sweet than past vintages, when the residual sugar showed thanks to the very ripe grapes used. The finish is long, vibrant and flinty. I like this wine's intensity of flavor and palate presence, and the broad, fine tannins that spread out to saturate the palate. Boasts 14.5% alcohol, but it’s so well balanced that you can hardly tell. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, March 2018)

Quite nice 2016. Slightly fruity, but some tannin. A bit sulphery, but not offensive.

Spicy red cherry and herbal notes appear on the dusty nose. Then becomes rich, ripe and very suave with candied red cherry and floral pastille flavors that have noteworthy lift and precision. Finishes long and remarkably smooth, given the total absence of oak. (ID)

Cherry aromas. Lighter body, clean, slight peppery finish. Very drinkable and enjoyable. Paired with spaghetti and homemade sauce.

Light cherry nose and taste. Not bad. My wife likes it and doesn't drink much wine. Good wine for amateurs that think it's fancy.
