  Decanted for an hour. Tight at first, but opened up to demonstrate a nicely made wine. Fruit still showing through. I would say that this wine is nearing its window to drink

  Deep dark center, red rim with age.
  Dense red fruit, burnt edges, oranges, smooth and a little sweet, very good length.
  Drinking well now, intense Brunello.

  Priming my palate for Benvenuto Brunello tomorrow, I thought it was time to check in on the 2004 Capanna Riserva. The nose was dark with depths of mineral-infused blackberry, dried strawberry, violet florals, cinnamon, mint, and hints of underbrush. On the palate, I found silky, pliant textures, with a wave of brisk acidity, tart cherry, saline-minerals and savory herbs, which cut through its soft textures like a hot knife, providing a very powerful expression. The finish was long with zesty red and black fruits, leather, savory herbs, spice and hints of fine tannin which grew stronger with each sip.
  
  This is one of the best '04 Brunellos that I've tasted in a long time and should continue to evolve for many years to come.
