January 6, 2024 - 2 hour decant
Phenomenal wine.
Doesn’t need a lot of coaxing or massaging. Tasted very good at the 1 hour decant mark… tasted even better at 2 hours.
As good or better than some of the best ‘16 Brunellos I have tried.
Beautiful fruit ball, moderate acidity, moderate tannins.
Flavor does a gymnastic floor exercise as you swirl, sip, wash over your tongue, and then swallow. So much going on here. The finish is sublime.
Sangiovese flexing hard. Love it.3 people found this helpful 1,065 views
