Plum. So much plum! Long legs. Very dry and a bit chalky. Licorice? Good wine.

Good, but nothing outstanding.

Lots and lots of acidity. Lots of sand in the sand timer for this one... open it again in like 3-4 years and it should show its true colours. Right now, it's good, but not a great example of what I picture a Bolgheri blend to be.

Plums, raspberries, a little of cherry at nose. Medium to high acidity, dried cherries, red forest berries, not much bodied. Feels like a little disbalanced for a blend. Would say that there is too much of Cabernet Sauvignon. Had it in 2024, so its 3 years. Should be better married for such period..

Big in sulfitos però delicado al paladar.

Cabernet Sauvignon (30%), Sangiovese (30%), Merlot (20%), Teroldego (10%) and Syrah (10%) Bolgheri blend. Dark (almost roasted looking) color. Bold aromas of dark fruit, leather and tobacco. Full pallet that features very ripe black cherry and ripe plum, spices, black licorice and tobacco. Hints of Smokey herbs on the finish, which is a touch sharp and sour. Extremely full bodied. Give this one a decant and time to open up.

What a nice Bolgheri! Initially acidic but in the mid palate a nice fruity, nearly sweet touch.
