Mid fruits and perfumed purple flowers on the nose. Strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, dried cranberries, pomegranate, leather and mushroom. Elegant finish. Tasted at Gaja out of a magnum.

Potpourri, tar, sandalwood, and perfect texture, already stunning, best wine I've tried so far this year.

This wine was wonderful after it breathed but the peak was too short and the decline too noticeable thereafter.

Lots of dark berries, rather earthy and mushroom like with big tannins. Very closed and tight at this stage. Not a whole lot going on, but very cool to try. Cellaring this for at least a decade.

Absolutely fantastic! Still young with its bold tannins. Would love to get another bottle and try again in 10-15 years
