January 2, 2023 - Bit of a stewed fruit character I don’t love. Drink now, on the downslope.

October 31, 2021 - This gives what you expect in a simple Brunello. Maroon, dense. Fresh. Straight forward cherries, leather, some licorice, and a little anise. Medium length.

December 30, 2020 - Delicious at this stage. Red fruits are both deep and bright. Hints of licorice and quite a bit of dust. Remained excellent four days after opening.

February 1, 2020 - Brick color, nicely developed brunello, beautiful tertiary aromas right from the moment you pull the cork, ready to drink almost immediately, fresh, savory, a good example of traditional style of BdM.
