April 4, 2024 - Light body. 13.5pct alcohol is which nice. Browning robe. Splash decanted for 3 hours and it needed every minute of it. Finally started to come into balance towards the end. Fruit is a bit thin, acidity a bit high although dissipates with time. Good with food but I wouldn’t go seek this out - poor QPR.

March 31, 2024 - I imagine this is beginning to enter a more mature phase. Plenty of fruits but also lovely early maturity with leather, rides, tar etc. Medium-full bodied, this is a great wine, from a less than great vintage.

December 17, 2022 - Biondi Santi Masterclass
Shows bottle development of smoke, roasted walnut, wet leaves and forest floor with typical dry orange peel notes. Medium plus flavour intensity and long finish.1 person found this helpful Comment -

June 9, 2022 - Nose was rather reticent at first, after an hr in the decanter really started to open. Dried florals, cherry, spice, a touch of charred wood, really nice nose, palate was elegant with good acidity, astringent tannin and great structure, classic/old school Brunello character, a real joy to drink and great with dinner. Just starting to show some maturity with the structure to age nicely. 92-93+
