Rødorange med mursteinskant. Mørk kjerne. Fiken, tørkede plommer, lakris, pipetobakk. I munnen er det tørkede kirsebær, plommer, svisker, pepper og kjøtt. Strukturert og frisk i munnen. Mye mindre alderspreg i munnen med ganske tydelige tanniner. 92-93

Fabulous! Opened and let sit in the glass 30 min. Was perfect. Cherry, leather, herb aroma and a great cherry flavor. Nice, long finish. Won’t get better. Enjoy now. Agree with the other comment - this is why you have a cellar. 20+ year old Brunellos come to those who buy and lay down, and the are fabulous.

Method: opened at Pasta Bar restaurant; Burgundy glass
Mint, light cherry; long finish; med plus acid; med minus body; med minus annin
Overall thoughts: Elegant, expeessive and complex. In a really great spot right now and wonderful with duck and Australian wagyu courses. 93 to 94 points. Really great wine!

Drinking really nicely now! As one reviewer noted “this is why I have a cellar.” And this is why Brunellos should be in everyone’s list and in everyone’s mind. The wonderful cherry aroma, soft integrated tannins. Easy to drink with a meal.

Dark reddish garnet in color with slight clearing at the edges. Full, fragrant & attractive nose of ripe red fruit aromas of cherries, blueberries & plums with overtones of earthy/dusty & floral notes, spices, mint, tobacco, leather, minerals, herbs a hint of cedar. Full bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe red fruit flavors of cherries, cranberries & plums with spices, dried herbs, minerals & a hint of oak. Lingering smooth finish. Drinks quite well with decanting & airing. At 24 years of age, it is approaching its peak of development although it should continue developing with additional aging.
