Red raspberry with floral notes on the nose. Raspberry, chocolate, pepper with notes of cherry, oak, vanilla and a hint of plum for the tongue. Nice tannins, light and spicy. Needs a few more years in the shelf but quite good. I suppose I expect more at the price point but a quality bottle. — 5 days ago

9.1

Blackberry, plum and cherry with floral notes on the nose. Hits the tongue with blackberry and leather, rolling to the back of the mouth in ripe plum and finishing with cherry, oak and walnut. Nice tannins, deep garnet, rich in flavor and warm in the mouth but not heavy. It’s a warm day in the fall in Tuscany. — 9 months ago

9.0

Wild blackberry and bramble with oaky notes on the nose. Gravel, leather and oak on tongue as blackberry rolls over the middle with notes of black cherry and pepper. Full bodied, nice tannins, finishing in leathery oak. Very impressive for the price, lives up to its name… i can feel a wine revolution in the air as california reds continue to display the richness and complexity of their french counterparts. — 6 months ago
