Drinking well I'd decant for at least an hour.. Fruity tones are still there tannins have definitely subsided over the last two years or so.

Opened this up and it was definitely gone... Hopefully someone with his vintage fares better. Wish I had drank it a year earlier.

Awesome. Enough said, was worried that it might of been past it's prime but it paired beautifully with a smoked brisket and German potato salad tonight. Velvety and smooth with firm tannins... I received this bottle as a gift and it was fantastic.

Solid cab.. Very good bouquet with aromas of cherry, vanilla, cinnamon, and currant. Decent finish with good tannins.. Will probably be good until 2014

Decided to finally write a review... Decanted for an hour the wine shows a nice ruby color and on the nose has aromas of dark berries and oak. Good body on the mouth with plum, blackberries, and pepper. Decent finish, wine feels like it is in it's prime. Great value for a Cab Franc.

2006 Castello Banfi Brunello di Montalcino

Sangiovese more

Tasted at a wine tasting last night.. It was only opened for about 30 minutes before tasted unfortunately. The first thing I will say that this wine is young and needs more time... I was a little dissapointed since 2006 was supposed to be a stellar vintage and in my opinion the 2004 Banfi was more complex at this stage, I will be interested to try again in a few years. The notes on the nose were pleasant with cherry, plum, a hint of vanilla and herbs. On the mouth medium body with some concentration, high acidity and tannins that show earthy notes, chocolate, cinnamon, and potential dark fruits. Hopefully after a few years of aging the fruits will show more and make this a more balanced wine.

Solid Sangiovese, fruity, but complexity is starting to show, should get better throughout the year.
