  Nose of smoky cherry, slightly ripe, very pretty. More red fruit on the palate, dusky cherry, dry and tart with a little tannin remaining. Very good, fine balance, food friendly - white bean sausage stew tonight. Very satisfying Brunello, at a good age. Drink now or for the next decade.

  The wine was moderately corked so no score or evaluation can be given although it seems it would have been nice enough otherwise from what could still be appreciated.

  DnP: light berry notes on decant, model airplane glue; ruby with light rim; medium bodied, cranberry extract with excellent vein of brambly minerality, fine finish; feels like it has a life ahead of it still

  PnP at a restaurant and was fully ready within 15-20 mins. The traditional style was quite evident here, which I greatly enjoy. Plenty of earth, dust, and leather that paired well with our Italian dishes. Medium body and acidity. The 2005 vintage is not a blockbuster, but I always enjoy wines that integrate well with a meal rather than be their own show.
