Mature Brunello. Earthiness and forest floor with a present tannic backbone that only occasionally gives way to a hint of sweet fruit at the back end. Good but not great wine that benefits from proper food pairing to shine

Opaque color. Upfront acidity and tannin, smoothly textured, concentrated, and delicious. Aging beautifully, well integrated, nothing astringent or sour, and fully enjoyable anytime in the next 4 years.

Opaque, inkey black. Deep nose of wet earth, forest floor and mushrooms. Initial acidity gives way to lively blackberry and stewed strawberry. Smooth oak on the mid. Dried fruit, mostly apricot, on the medium finish.

This bottle is just too hot for me. Not balanced.
