Monday, February 6, 2017 - Followed an awesome 2007 Lisini Brunello with this which was a touch more modern in style yet still very good.

I'll be there again in less than two months, let me know if you'd like specifics on what they do there (though most everything is already on the interwebz, erm, their site)
The irony of your note is that Andrea, at Uccelliera, is more likely to produce a 'modern' wine that Lisini ever will. And I love, Andrea, and his wines. And he knows that.

Desperately need to get back to Tuscany!
