    Thursday, July 01, 2010 - From 375. Not what I remember... and not that impressed. Popped and poured. Raisin, plum and leather. A lot of raisin. Seemed "ordinary". I had this at a restaurant about a year ago and remember being blown away (hence why I went out a bought some). This was NOT that experience. Very good

    Tuesday, June 22, 2010 - Excellent. From a 375. Spicy nose of plum and raisined red fruit with a little bit of leather. After time, the palate took on a little animal funk after and was dominated by black cherries. Pretty smooth wine. Wish I had more.

    Saturday, June 12, 2010 - almost black with orange reflexes, aroma of plum, brambleberry, raisins, taste unbalanced with alcohol and acidity. nice slight bitterness, medium finish, aftertaste of raisins (typical ripasso). perhaps this can come more together with further cellaring.

    Sunday, June 06, 2010 - This wine is always consistent and and a real nice match with food. Paired with grilled lamb and the cherry flavors really came forward. Soft not overpowering but with a smooth silky finish.
