1/27/2024 - Metalhorns Likes this wine: 92 pointsDeep aromas of leather, oak, smoke and jammy dark fruit meets a creamy mouthfeel that crescendos into medium tannins that hang on for a while. Really blooms impressively with a good decant. Everything happens synergistically here, and the nice bit of minerality adds subtle brushstrokes to this wonderfully earthy supertuscan's ouevre of bramble and woodland noise. Dark decadence from top to bottom. |

4/21/2024 - pinoteer Likes this wine: 90 pointsDecanted one hour. Some tawny color intruding on the light red fruit color. Rich, almost baked, cherries, wet saddle, and wood notes. Tannins are quite smooth, with nice acidity. Medium-length finish. Doesn't compare to the '13 Argiano that we had the other night, but a decent BdM nonetheless. |

4/19/2024 - DizzyOneCheck Likes this wine: 88 pointsGenerally consistent with prior note. Found the sangiovese to be more muted this time, and overall palate more muddled. Very approachable and easy drinking if a bit nondescript this time around. |

Length is pretty decent and it finishes on the back palette harmoniously. Tannins are dry but the big fruit makes them interesting and elegant. Paid 13€ and I would buy 2 cases. |

4/11/2024 - WildeMeeuw Likes this wine: 89 points Kleur: Fluwelig en subtiel doorschijnend robijnrood. Aroma / bouquet: Donker, subtiel maar wel aangenaam tertiair en licht-stallerig bouquet Daarnaast wat donker gedroogd fruit, aangenaam hout en paddestoeltjes. Smaak / Afdronk: Prettige zuurgraad. Aangename en serieuze vulling en concentratie, aangename en stoere tannines. Mooi gerijpte Brunello Riserva, super aangenaam, rijk en rijp. Serieuze aafdronk. Algemeen / potentieel: 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 11 + Smaak / Afdronk: 15 + Algemeen / potentieel: 8 = 89/100 |

4/4/2024 - Gianni D Likes this wine: 90 pointsSlightly murky medium garnet in color, with little legs. Very appealing bright black cherry nose but giving way to red cherry on the palate, and with enough complexity to make it very enjoyable. Medium acid and light tannin with a relatively short but pleasant finish. This wine is a great value and has been quite consistent over the years, a favorite everyday wine ever since I first tasted it at Castello Banfi long ago. |

3/29/2024 - tmb@bmtintl1.com Likes this wine: 93 pointsimpressive aged Brunello ... still dark fruit along with earthy, light oak, mineral, tar notes and balanced acids and tannins - no brown edges at all on a deep dark wine ... nuances changing over several hours, but no fade to the intensity ... this wine has been cellared since purchase ... enjoyed in Italy (Sud Tyrol) and no one accused the wine of being too "American" or over extracted ... |

3/28/2024 - wahoo70 wrote: 88 pointsFragrant, enticing nose, almost floral, with pretty red and purple fruit and some savory notes; tart and bone dry in the mouth, with the fruit backing off into a long finish dominated by acidity and tannins. Not my favorite style for a Toscana, but pretty well made. |

5/21/2021 - owr Likes this wine: 90 pointsRich exciting wine with good acidity, plus coffee, cassis, vanilla, cedar and anise along with balsamic, blueberry, and smoke layers, all with a long finish. There is a spicy / acidity interplay here at about the hour and a half mark- but this wine proves to be silky smooth, but also maintains a spice edge with good acidity - there's also some mocha, blackberry, black cherry and cassis on the lingering finish. |

3/21/2024 - owr wrote: 87 pointsSmells dusty and dried with notes of cassis and cedar, plus smoky, coffee and a little chicory. On the palate things move quick with notes of spiced-black cherry coming to the fore as it opens, then other dark fruits, and other complimentary notes, emerge: cassis, mocha, black cherry, blueberry, licorice, cedar, smoky - it just keeps on giving ... good wine to drink now - It takes some time to open and it peeks around the hour and a half mark, before slowly sliding into more tertiary flavours. |
