This bottle was in great shape and drinking beautifully - I hope my remaining 2 bottles show as well as this one.

Best bottle of the 3 I've tried, so far. Went very quickly at a small gathering.

Cork in great condition. Was a little more advanced than the last bottle, maybe slightly oxidized, so not quite as enjoyable. Still a good drink, though, and delivered good Sangiovese character.

Recent auction purchase (1 case, split between my brother and me).
Very hard cork made the extraction using an Ah-So a very strenuous task. Took a lot of elbow grease, but finally got it out in one piece, with staining only about 1/5th up from the bottom of the cork. In any case, this bottle showed mature Sangio fruit mostly in a tertiary stage at this point. More savory than fruit notes, with silky mouthfeel. Depth was a bit lacking, but it did seem to gain some weight with continued air exposure. Probably slightly past peak based on this bottle, but a very nice drink that should pair well with many pasta dishes. We'll see how the other bottles show.

Great cherry+pomegranate nose. Lip-smacking entry due to pronounced sour cherry acidity. Quite drinkable now but more like a top-quality Chianti Classico than a traditional Brunello. Good stuff!

Medium body, high acid, with the Sangiovese dominating. It benefited greatly from a two-hour decant, integrating nicely with more fruit, a silky texture, and the acidity not so noticeable. Drink now.

Dark cherry and brick color. Acidic and tight finish on taste. Decanted for an hour and then drank over the next 2 hours. Opened up beautifully. Plum and mineral on nose. Cooked stawberry and plum palate. Long lingering finsh. Wonderful now, but still a bit wound up...this has the potential to go another 5+ years for sure.

Aging slowly. This bottle was perhaps just past it zenith, but most I've had are not. Very typical red fruits, mushrooms, earthiness, dried herbs, touch of smoked meats/tar.

Needs air - after 2 hours in the glass it opened up and came together. Flowers, cedar, integrated tannins.
Nice food wine.

Type: Red
Mature and shiny with a captivating profile alternating notes of sour cherries, pressed red flowers, lemon juice, linden, jasmine, rose petals and dog rose. Full bodied, soft tannins of optimum workmanship and an incredibly elegant and compact finale that will come out over time. Better from 2023. International Wine Report

Plums and blackberries with cedar and flowers. Cool and fresh. Full-bodied with really fine tannins that are multilayered on the palate. Tight at the end. Extremely well-crafted and structured. Drink in 2023 and onwards. James Suckling

This offerring from Vitanza is Tuscan all the way! While it doesn’t portray the quality of a Brunnello, it is great as an aged Rosso! Or, on par with their Supertuscan Quadramendo. A few hours in I get some great strawberry flavors, while tannins are present and balanced. Priced like a Rosso, so no complaints. 3.8 stars.

This is a real winner. Clear cherry color with an orange rim, medium body in the glass. The nose is huge, with elements of strawberry and cloves as well as a strong cedar overlay. It is big and bold, as one would expect, but perfectly smooth, well integrated and finely structured with moderate tannin and a long finish. There's no reason not to drink this now except, of course, that it's probably going to get better!

Nothing special of a wine. Fruit forward easy drinker and lighter bodied wines. Well balanced with a fairly lively acidity. I was told that this is the mother wine of the Andretti Barolo 16'. Not sure what this means.

Slow ox 5 hours. A little bit of orange at the edge but no material bricking. Red cherry with plenty of mushroom, forest floor and touches of cassis. Very smooth. 15 second finish. Still plenty of life.

Still quite youthful in colour after 16 years. Vibrant red all the way to the rim and corners. Lots of bright red berry fruit on the nose. Honey cake and a light cinamon spice as well. Wonderful mouthfeel with a initial baked red berry compote. A nice long finish lasting minutes. Beautiful balance and with a little air from decanting you realize quickly that this wine is at its best. It might even be better than the reservo of the same year. Drink NOW!
