Decent fruit, earth and leather. Texturally: decent acidity and soft tannins. Decanting not required. Overall an above average sangiovese but not in the league one expects from Brunello.

A nice Sangiovese, but not at the level a Brunello should be. This will also have a rather short drinking window for a Brunello from a great vintage. The focus is on the fruit with some subtile bitter touches originating from the mineral aspect. It's a nice wine but 'Brunello' on the label gives other expectations.

vinen lagret 30 måneder på store 30-100 hektoliter slavonske fade efterfulgt af 4 måneder på flaske inden frigivelse. Produktionen har i 2016 årgangen været 55.500 flasker.
Dejlig moden og rund næse … lidt stille til at starte med, men langsomt dukker der lidt tobak op, appelsinskal, blomster, roser, en del kirsebær, brombær, blommer, chokolade, både hvid chokolade og mælkechokolade, men alt sammen meget stille, forsigtigt og i stille ro og balance. Her vender ikke et hår forkert … meget pænt.
Smagen er lidt i samme vogn … kører bare fuldstændig på midten af vejen uden at ramme rabatten. Det er pænt og fløjlsblødt med både lyse kirsebær og lyse blommer. Tanninerne er silkefine, polerede og næsten skinnende, men har ikke det store bid, som kendetegner ret mange Brunello’er. Til gengæld er frugten og stilen virkelig lys, luftig og let, hvilket gør vinen både elegant og feminin smuk. Der er lidt urter, igen svagt chokolade, lækkerlys syre og flot vin.

Intense friske røde og sorte kirsebær, rosmarin, lidt fad og røg uden at blive sødt, lidt jord. Medium+ syre og medium+tannin. God længde. Klart bedre end sidste flaske i 04/2022

Agree with the consensus. This is a very drinkable and immensely enjoyable wine. Poured a glass right after decanting, nice fruit, earth, and leather in the nose; dark fruit, soft tannins. A touch of acidity in the mouth. Alcohol is not a factor. Exhibits classic Bunello profile, but in a subdued style. Drank with a red sauce with sausage and fresh pasta. Have a few more so will have to work it into the rotation.

PNP at restaurant. Really nice right out of the gate (90-91 pts). Last few sips an hour later were really good (92 pts). One bottle left and I'm going to drink it soon as it doesn't seem this will improve further. Brad - heavypourwine.com

Coming along nicely with the fruit, tannin, cherry/blood orange fruit, spice and tar all integrating nicely. Still pretty young and powerful, and the last 1/3 of the bottle was great the second night.

Farve: grantrød, gennemskinnelig kerne. 5/5 Duft: Kirsebær, hindbær, jord, vådt træ. 12/15 Smag: dag 1: meget domineret af fad. Dag 2: mere primær frugt, kirsebær, røde hindbær, stadig en jordet tone, læder, fad, røg. Medium+syre og medium+ tannin. 15/20 Overall: gode røde frugter, god struktur, god syre, lidt for fadtung. 7/10

Nice depth and fruit profile. This brunello has a black fruit bent with a number of undertones of dry leaves, earthiness and a nice tannic structure. Really enjoyable

nose: strawberry!!, jam
palate: strawberry, rose, earthy
딸기, 잼 향이 강렬하다. 과실 폭발! 그리고 약간의 장미, 흙 느껴짐.
맛과 향의 복합성이 다소 부족함.

In a really good spot. Bright red blue fruit, smooth tannins and long finish. Paired with eggplant parm and it worked great. Drink or hold.
