August 23, 2020 - Strawberry and camphor on the nose. On the palate, black cherry, blackberry, and notes of tapenade and leather on the medium finish, with moderate tannins and strong acidity. This is a good wine, but it hardly tastes like Brunello. The classic Sangiovese cherry/cranberry taste plays a minor role in comparison to the strong black fruit. Given the remaining tannins and overall good balance, the Cellartracker drinking window is too short; this will be good for at least three to five years.

February 15, 2020 - Very good. This has healed up very well. Only wish that wasn’t my last bottle. Dark fruit bold but very well ballance

September 25, 2019 - Last bottle. Not quite as good as previous one but still decent. A bit more dried fruit and licorice like notes.

May 1, 2019 - Medium plus to full body but not heavy. Quite smooth and elegant. Black fruit and soft licorice notes with mid palate acidity and barely noticeable tannin on the finish. Maybe peaking at this point. Suggest drinking what you have in the next year or two.
