My last bottle and surprised it’s taken me ‘till now to write about it! Stunning QPR; medium garnet with a little orange on the rim. Pronounced aromas and flavours of dark fruits; cherry, plum, blackberry, blackcurrant, and just a touch of prune & liquorice. Earth, ready rubbed tobacco, leather, cedar, toast & smoke. The 15% alcohol is totally seamless and almost invisible, full and smooth in the mouth with a lick of almost lemony acidity on the long finish. Flippin’ gorgeous!

Really impressive, huge flavor explosion mid to back palate. Earth, leather and mushrooms all express themselves.. Crystallized sediment at the bottom of the bottle.

Vacker rödbrun färg, ganska bra intensitet. Bra syra med doft av torkade rosor och körsbär. Medelhög till hög nivå av väl integrerade tanniner. Ett mycket gott vin till kycklinggrytan med soltorkade tomater. 92 poäng.

Green and black olive plus a touch of salami on the nose at first. Then plum and cherry flavors. Ultra fine tannins. Excellent now and for many years to come.

I had the privilege of visiting the winery last year, and shipped home a mixed case...6 of the 2010 Brunello. When the strong review came out on the '11, I emailed Fattoi and ordered the new vintage. Yes, young, but tasty and juicy, and this was just a PnP. I've got enough to be able to try one bottle now. Something to look forward to down the road.

Absolutely lovely wine. Agree with comments about approachability and youth - but I am twitched by the charming sweetness of this wine. We decanted for a couple of hours which helped. Very enjoyable now, will be fantastic in a 4 or 5 years.

Dark ruby. Somewhat mute nose dominated by dark fruits, cherries mainly. Add sandalwood, spices and a trace of alcohol on the palate. No sensation of oak, but grippy tannins. Good, but very primary. Hold off.

Behövde luftas. Körsbär, bra m frukt och garvsyra. Kan nog ligga något år till.

very nice taste with a great acidity and freshness. Herbs and stable notes together with fruity cherries.
Buy, drink, enjoy!
