Such a lovely Brunello here, fragrant, pure, balanced and polished, while still retaining that lovely savoury-floral...

Still quite tight and rather austere with tough tannins. Regardless, the balance is spot-on and this relatively...

Showing volatile acidity that blows off with a bit of air, but I'd drink up if you have a bottle or two left. Garnet in colour. Mature nose and flavours in the dried red fruit spectrum, dried violet, savoury notes, cinnamon, soy, and cedar. Tannins are very resolved but a hint of graininess pokes through showing a bit of life yet. Acidity has kept this wine going. The length is excellent. A nice example of mature Brunello. March 2020.

Great, but better wines at this price point. Wouldn't recommend.
