  Long, intact cap.
  
  Very pretty nose, full of freshness, it is floral, with red fruits, spices and a metallic touch.
  
  The palate is full of nuance, with a fresh attack, it's very floral for a Brunello, then come herbs and spices, with a touch of sandalwood and iron. It is complex but at the same time very airy, very delicate, with a textured juice which has a great elegant length. Beautiful finish, where the intensity increases by one tone, with notes of violets with a persistent saline length.
  
  Excellent Brunello, in a style that I particularly appreciate.

  Fruit foward, very mellow. Little or no tanins. Enjoyed with meat lasagna

  Wow what a wine. No decant. Very little loose sediment, perfectly integrated with long finish, weighty mouthfeel. Hard to imagine a better wine could be in my cellar at this point. Anyone reading this is likely fortunate to have this gem. 96+

  Excellent. Drinking beautifully. Full bodied but not overpowering and smooth. Had with Ben and Pace.

  The wine seemed very old and have lost all its fruit. I did not find it defective in any way and it just felt boring and irrelevant. Quite a disappointing experience!
