2006 Pian dell'Orino Brunello di Montalcino
5/11/2024 - Philip67 Likes this wine: 94 Points
This is rather wonderful. Pure focused ethereal sweet red and black fruits, along with pronounced leather and cedar and a hint of tar in the background. Great midweight and medium poweredstructure, in perfect balance with the fruit. Very long finish, with good complexity. Drinking now and over the next decade.

2018 Kapcsándy Family Winery Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Cuvée State Lane Vineyard
5/11/2024 - Philip67 Does not like this wine: 89 Points
I know this is not the top cuvee but I found it disappointing. This is elegant but lacks fruit concentration and is quite dry on the finish. There are pure, quite polished expressions of cassis and blackcurrant here, with some vanilla behind. Medium bodied, this has a moderate structure. Short finish and straightforward. Will be better in 5 years but lacks charm which I don't think will develop.

2015 Pian dell'Orino Brunello di Montalcino Bassolino di Sopra

Pure, rich but elegant. Red fruits and tar on the palate. There is mocha, dark chocolate and cedar notes. Nice warmth. Long finish with developing complexity. Beginning to drink now and will continue for another 20 years.
