  From the coravin. Definitely no decant needed at this point. Color is showing brown edges - a bit earlier then I would expect. It's lively with red fruit and the tobacco and oak one expects from a brunello. On the lighter bodied side. Tanins are still firm, but I feel like the fruit is starting to fade and, with the firm tanins, this creates a bit of unbalance. I bought this in 2013 for $35 and the QPR at that price is outstanding, but it's definitely time to drink up IMO.

  Wonderful Brunello after at the 16-year mark. Red cherry, strawberry, and black raspberry fruit up front. Nice core with note of spice, cracked pepper, red licorice, and subtle tobacco. Easy drinking wine right now with good acidity, soft tannins, and long finish. Great now and over the next few years.

  - Brick color with fast forming legs and aromas of tea, blackberry, cherry and fig. It's balanced and has flavours of black pepper, cherry and raisin with a full body. Smooth texture with a long finish - Decanted two hours. The wine can continue to age a long time.
