  September 18, 2022 - Opened two bottles because the first one was corked and was discarded. As for the second bottle, on the first night it was unpleasant. Had a harsh, green pepper or grass aspect to it. But 24 hours later I found the bottle in the living room, having been left opened, with nearly a glassful still remaining in it; and over the 24 hours, left out like that, it had improved a lot. Became a pleasant, mellow wine.

  September 29, 2021 - Had 2 bottles over dinner with the LV crew last nite at a midtown Italian eatery (very good food, but I don't recall the name of the place on E.52).
  Dark garnet color, no noticeable bricking. Pleasant nose of cherries and plums, with some violet and dust. There's still a good amount of red and black cherry fruit here, with leather and herbs. Pleasingly long and spicy finish. We popped n poured the first bottle, but decanted the 2nd--from which this wine def benefitted. Way WAY overpriced on this wine list, but very enjoyable BdM that still has some life ahead.

  February 7, 2021 - Solid brunello but I was expecting a little more complexity or age or both. I think it might be a bit young. I thought the forward nature of 2007 might show more, ut think this is a bit closed. Next bottle 3 years. (if I remember to wait)
