“all the typical markers are present, just not as complex or brute as other representatives from the house. I attribute this to the fact that he spent a large part of his maturity in a continental climate. Overall, quite round and rather 'fruit-driven' for a Caroni.”

“Ein durchschnittlicher Caroni, der seinen Schwerpunkt auf den Werkstattnoten hat. Er kommt recht mild bis wässrig rüber. Insgrsamt fehlt etwas an Komplexität.”
