April 17, 2024 - One of the best vintage for Brunello. Pronounced nose intensity with notes of black fruits, spices, blackcurrant.

October 30, 2023 - Notes after 4 hours in decanter. Brownish-ruby color, about 60% opaque, no sediment.
Profound nose of pipe tobacco, lavender and other floral aspects, paint and perfume. Tannic, acidic, but beautiful . This is just a baby and I suggest waiting another few years unless you have more than a few. It's still a gorgeous drink if you want to follow it over a day or two. 5+13+18+8= 943 people found this helpful Comment -
