  A little dry on the tongue to begin with, but with only a few minutes air opened up beautifully - a touch of oak, vanilla...more tobacco, cherry and leather and such a wondefully long finish!
  
  Looking forward to enjoying the rest of the case! 😎

  Great. Good up front aroma and flavors, long lingering with low acid.

  Nice nose with earth, herbs and cherries. Palate is really powerfull again with black cherries, at times with the most wonderful sweet fruit and a lot of structure, at other times the structure takes over.
  This has evolved quite a bit, since i had it more than a year ago and while theres more pleasure today it is still very young. Wish i could keep my hands of it for another couple of years.
  I have tasted a lot of 2016 brunellos and this one is different and more backward, but all the stuff is here for a stunning Brunello. The fruit is impressive. 93+

  Big, ripe fruit on the nose with spice, leather, and smoke. Rich on the palate with plenty of body and dark cherry, fruitcake, and charred wood. Long finish. That lip-smacking Italian acidity.
