 Tasted by YOONA wapa on 4/15/2024 & rated 89 points: nose: strawberry!!, jam
palate: strawberry, rose, earthy

딸기, 잼 향이 강렬하다. 과실 폭발! 그리고 약간의 장미, 흙 느껴짐.
맛과 향의 복합성이 다소 부족함. (619 views)
 Tasted by Neecies on 1/20/2024: Decent fruit, earth and leather. Texturally: decent acidity and soft tannins. Decanting not required. Overall an above average sangiovese but not in the league one expects from Brunello. (1240 views)
 Tasted by Kris G on 1/16/2024 & rated 88 points: A nice Sangiovese, but not at the level a Brunello should be. This will also have a rather short drinking window for a Brunello from a great vintage. The focus is on the fruit with some subtile bitter touches originating from the mineral aspect. It's a nice wine but 'Brunello' on the label gives other expectations. (1322 views)
 Tasted by HeavyPourWine on 1/13/2024 & rated 91 points: Enjoyable fruit bomb! Brad - heavypourwine.com (1239 views)
 Tasted by Bødker on 12/13/2023: vinen lagret 30 måneder på store 30-100 hektoliter slavonske fade efterfulgt af 4 måneder på flaske inden frigivelse. Produktionen har i 2016 årgangen været 55.500 flasker.

Dejlig moden og rund næse … lidt stille til at starte med, men langsomt dukker der lidt tobak op, appelsinskal, blomster, roser, en del kirsebær, brombær, blommer, chokolade, både hvid chokolade og mælkechokolade, men alt sammen meget stille, forsigtigt og i stille ro og balance. Her vender ikke et hår forkert … meget pænt.

Smagen er lidt i samme vogn … kører bare fuldstændig på midten af vejen uden at ramme rabatten. Det er pænt og fløjlsblødt med både lyse kirsebær og lyse blommer. Tanninerne er silkefine, polerede og næsten skinnende, men har ikke det store bid, som kendetegner ret mange Brunello’er. Til gengæld er frugten og stilen virkelig lys, luftig og let, hvilket gør vinen både elegant og feminin smuk. Der er lidt urter, igen svagt chokolade, lækkerlys syre og flot vin. (1596 views)
 Tasted by Boblen on 10/18/2023 & rated 93 points: Intense friske røde og sorte kirsebær, rosmarin, lidt fad og røg uden at blive sødt, lidt jord. Medium+ syre og medium+tannin. God længde. Klart bedre end sidste flaske i 04/2022 (2022 views)
 Tasted by Wild Boar on 10/14/2023 & rated 93 points: Agree with the consensus. This is a very drinkable and immensely enjoyable wine. Poured a glass right after decanting, nice fruit, earth, and leather in the nose; dark fruit, soft tannins. A touch of acidity in the mouth. Alcohol is not a factor. Exhibits classic Bunello profile, but in a subdued style. Drank with a red sauce with sausage and fresh pasta. Have a few more so will have to work it into the rotation. (1634 views)
 Tasted by HeavyPourWine on 10/13/2023 & rated 92 points: PNP at restaurant. Really nice right out of the gate (90-91 pts). Last few sips an hour later were really good (92 pts). One bottle left and I'm going to drink it soon as it doesn't seem this will improve further. Brad - heavypourwine.com (1686 views)
 Tasted by ChrisinCowiche on 8/18/2023 & rated 92 points: In a really good spot. Bright red blue fruit, smooth tannins and long finish. Paired with eggplant parm and it worked great. Drink or hold. (1758 views)
 Tasted by Sperls on 7/24/2023 & rated 92 points: Coming along nicely with the fruit, tannin, cherry/blood orange fruit, spice and tar all integrating nicely. Still pretty young and powerful, and the last 1/3 of the bottle was great the second night. (1718 views)
 Tasted by ChrisinCowiche on 6/1/2022: Needs more time. Pop and pour is acidic fruity and tannic, but all of the parts are not yet aligned. No score (3693 views)
 Tasted by Jonnytheneedle on 5/2/2022 & rated 90 points: Tight right now. Needs time april 23. Much better now. Well aproachable. (3284 views)
 Tasted by Boblen on 4/15/2022 & rated 89 points: Farve: grantrød, gennemskinnelig kerne. 5/5
Duft: Kirsebær, hindbær, jord, vådt træ. 12/15
Smag: dag 1: meget domineret af fad. Dag 2: mere primær frugt, kirsebær, røde hindbær, stadig en jordet tone, læder, fad, røg. Medium+syre og medium+ tannin. 15/20
Overall: gode røde frugter, god struktur, god syre, lidt for fadtung. 7/10 (3208 views)
 Tasted by Miss Pep on 1/22/2022 & rated 92 points: Yummy, full bodied. (3548 views)
 Tasted by gschneider on 12/22/2021 & rated 90 points: Nice depth and fruit profile. This brunello has a black fruit bent with a number of undertones of dry leaves, earthiness and a nice tannic structure. Really enjoyable (3772 views)
 Tasted by DRicks on 10/22/2021 & rated 88 points: Everyday drinker. Middle of road Brunello but very easy to drink. (3060 views)
 Tasted by cdebeau on 10/14/2021 & rated 89 points: Austere, subdued fruit with short finish and mild tannins (2939 views)
 Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 6/9/2021: Classic built up. (3662 views)

Sangiovese

SANGIOVESE: (Pronounced "sahn-joh-vhe-se").
Sangiovese - Italy's claim to fame, the pride of Tuscany. Traditionally made, the wines are full of cherry fruit, earth, and cedar. It produces Chianti (Classico), Rosso di Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino, Rosso di Montepulciano, Montefalco Rosso, and many others. Sangiovese is also the backbone in many of the acclaimed, modern-styled "Super-Tuscans", where it is blended with Bordeaux varietals (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc) and typically aged in French oak barrels, resulting a wine primed for the international market in the style of a typical California cabernet: oaky, high-alcohol, and a ripe, jammy, fruit-forward profile.[16]

Semi-classic grape grown in the Tuscany region of Italy. Used to produce the Chianti and other Tuscan red wines. Has many clonal versions, two of which seem to predominate. The Sangiovese Grosso clone Brunello variety is used for the dark red, traditionally powerful and slow-maturing "Brunello di Montalcino" wine. The other is the Sangiovese Piccolo, also known under the historical synonym name Sangioveto, used for standard Chianti Classico DOC wines. Old vine derived wine is often used in the better versions, needing several years ageing to reach peak. A third clone, Morellino, is used in a popular wine blend with the same name found in the southern part of the province. Recent efforts in California with clones of this variety are very promising, producing medium-bodied reds with rich cherry or plumlike flavors and aromas. Among the available clonal versions are R6 and R7, derived from the Montalcino region of Italy, having average productivity/ripening and producing small berries on medium size clusters. R10 and R24 are well-recommended. R23, listed as deriving from the Emilia-Romagna region, has good vigor with medium-small clusters with earlier ripening. R102 derives from the Montepulciano region and reported to have average vigor with moderate productivity that results in higher sugar levels and good acidity from medium-small berries on medium-small clusters. Has synonym name of Nielluccio where grown in Corsica.
