Rather restrained at this point and rather angular but tons of potential here. A dark impression of Merlot with all the elements of a Black Forest Gateaux: dark chocolate, cherry and... ok that's where the analogy stops. Very nice now. Will he way better in 2022.

Concentrated...linear....a whole lot of oak and extraction. But I had enough fat for dinner to mitigate that. Would not have pegged it for an Italian merlot!

Аромат не очень мощный, чуть сладковатый, замша, джемовые нотки. Тело полное, вкус весьма насыщенный, очень много ягод и дуба. Хорошо и с потенциалом. 16/20 (90/100)

Has a blueberry and berry character. Full and silky with a long finish...Im a big fan of organic grapes. Drink now.

очень изящный аромат лесных ягод, фрукты, мускус, небольшая кислотность, мягкое, точное завершение, хорошие танины. 92

Didn't taste like an Italian wine - missing the Sangiovese - but good nonetheless. Earthy, full but not overpowering and I think the aging since 2004 helped. Decent super Tuscan from #Schneiders in DC.
