1990 Cerbaiola (Salvioni) Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese

Brunello 1990 Horisontal Tasting (@ Canan): Very very impressive nose that is hugely intense and just packed with complex impressions; sewer, eucalyptus, coffee, smoke, tart cherries, cranberries and rusty minerals.
The palate is equally impressive and is dominated by a cranberry style fruit and a little red currants. The age shows as mushrooms and forest floor in the mid-palate.
An incredible wine that turned out to be as good as I had hoped for. The complexity and purity is just impressive
Everything is fully integrated in a pure and impressive expression of Sangiovese.
One of the best Brunello's I have have ever tasted!

2004 Fontodi Flaccianello della Pieve Colli della Toscana Centrale IGT Sangiovese

Beautifull wine. Very fresh, but I dont think it will get any better. It confirmed the former experiences, that I had with Flaccianello. 10 years is the peak. I will drink now and the next 2 years

Tried many vintages the wine in my opinion goes down when old Tried many big vintages like 88 magnum and 90 both long gone. I prefer many other sangiovese to this, but when you hit the right moment like I did yesterday its great

2010 Cerbaiona (Molinari) Rosso di Montalcino Sangiovese

This Rosso from Cerbaiona set a new standard for RdM. A very traditional made Rosso, with a very long living potential. A lot of fruit and spices. A very pleasant nose and nice medium dark color. This wine needs another 2-3 years + before it reach it's potential.

Diego is the master in Montalcino, and I can tell everybody, that the 2010 Brunello will sent all the others back to the vineyard to try to find out, what Diego does better than all the others. I tasted 2010 Brunello, and have one in the cellar given by Nora just after bottling in september. Its out of this world. By the way. I gave the Rosso 2010 95, and was closer to 96 than 94
